The plate load test is used to determine the ultimate bearing capacity of soil and expected settlement under a given load. It involves loading a steel plate placed on the soil surface and measuring settlement. Key steps are installing dial gauges around the plate, applying incremental loads and recording settlement readings over time, continuing until a settlement of 25mm or failure occurs. Ultimate bearing capacity is calculated based on the maximum applied load, and settlement of shallow foundations can b
