The Static Plate Load Tester is an essential field-testing instrument used to determine the bearing capacity and settlement characteristics of soil and pavement foundations. Trusted in geotechnical and civil engineering projects, this tester provides accurate measurements to evaluate the suitability and stability of subgrade layers before construction.

Designed for rugged field environments, our Static Plate Load Tester features strong steel plates, a hydraulic loading system, and a high-precision dial gauge or digital displacement measurement setup. It ensures consistent loading and reliable readings, helping engineers assess soil deformation under incremental loads to aid in foundation design and ground improvement decisions.
