About Plate Bearing Test Apparatus

Plate Bearing Test Apparatus:

  • We are engaged in manufacturing and supplying Plate Bearing Test Apparatus, which is used for estimating the bearing capacity of shallow foundations in situ and for the design of flexible pavement. This test is a standard technique fro determining bearing capacity of soils and is used in agriculture, defense, education, geophysical/ seismology, irrigation and mining industry.                                                 

Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP)

  • It is used for rapid in-situ measurement of the structural properties of existing road pavement constructed with unbound materials.The unit incorporates an 8 Kg weight having a drop of 575 mm, fitted to end of the shaft is a 20 mm diameter cone. With the standard DCP measurements can be made down to a depth of approximately 850 mm.Reading are taken after a set number of blows, changing the number according to the strength of layer being penetrated. For good granular bases,readings every 5-10 blows are satisfactory, but for weaker sub-base layers and sub grades, readings every 1-2 blows may be appropriate.
  • The DCP requires Three operators, one to hold the instrument in a vertical position, one to raise the hammer and let it fall and one to record the results. A typical test takes only a few minutes, providing a very efficient method of obtaining information, which would otherwise require the excavation of test pits. Where pavement layers have different strengths, boundaries can be identified and layer thickness determined.Supplied complete in a nice Wooden Carrying Case.

Its core componentsload cell, hydraulic jack, dial gauge, and reference beamdeliver comprehensive data collection for soil engineers and construction professionals. Accessories included enable immediate field deployment.

FAQs of Plate Bearing Test Apparatus:


Q: How is the Plate Bearing Test Apparatus set up in the field?

A: The apparatus is designed for quick and straightforward assembly using included accessories such as steel plates, a reference beam, and dial gauge stands. Its field-portable structure enables efficient deployment, even in challenging outdoor conditions.

Q: What plate diameter and hydraulic jack capacity options are available?

A: Plate diameters can be selected from 300 mm, 450 mm, 600 mm, or customized sizes, while hydraulic jacks are available in capacities ranging from 50 kN to 2000 kN depending on the model or specification required for your soil testing application.

Q: When and where is the Plate Bearing Test Apparatus typically used?

A: This equipment is used during geotechnical investigations to assess soil bearing capacity and settlement characteristics, generally on construction sites, road and railway foundations, and other field environments requiring precise soil evaluation.

Q: What process is involved for measuring load and displacement?

A: Load is applied using a hydraulic jack and measured via a calibrated pressure gauge or electronic load cell. Displacement is recorded with a high-precision dial gauge (least count 0.01 mm), ensuring accurate test results per applicable standards.

Q: How does the apparatus comply with industry standards?

A: The system is fully compliant with IS: 1888, BS 1377, and ASTM D1194 standards, ensuring consistent methodology and reliable data for professional soil investigations.

Q: What are the benefits of using this apparatus for soil testing?

A: Its high measurement accuracy, robust construction, ease of assembly, and adaptability to different test requirements enhance efficiency and reliability in field soil analyses, supporting safe infrastructure development.

Q: Is a digital display option available, and what is the operating environment?

A: Yes, users can choose between standard analog dial gauges and digital display options. The apparatus is optimized for outdoor field use and performs reliably within -10C to +50C temperature ranges.
