The plate load test is a widely used field test to determine the bearing capacity of soil and settlement of structures under loads. The test involves applying a load to a steel plate placed on the soil surface and measuring the resulting settlement. The data collected from the test is then used to calculate the bearing capacity of the soil and design foundations.
