Soil tests can be categorized into in-situ tests and laboratory tests. In-situ tests include: plate loading test, CBR test, GCO probe test, point load strength index test, in situ density test,measurement of soil resisitivity and determination of redox potential of soil, etc.
Plate loading test
Soil
hydraulic consolidation test and triaxial compressive strength test
Laboratory tests
include :
For soil
test - classification test,
shear strength
test, consolidation
test,
permeability test, laboratory CBR test, Rowe cell test, resisitivity
and redox potential tests.
For rock
test - point load strength index test and unconfined
uniaxial
compressive strength test.
Our soil testing follows the GEO Report No. 36 and BS1377 : 1990.
