Pressure Meter Test
Pressuremeter testing is an essential tool for assessing the small strain modulus of soils in both offshore and onshore geotechnical engineering. Pressuremeter testing is an accurate in situ testing method for measuring a range of soil properties. Its prime use is in determining the in-situ strength and stiffness of soils and rocks.
Pressuremeter (also referred to as High-Pressure Dilatometer (HPD testing) is used in a pre-bored pocket making the test relatively simple to perform in many ground conditions.
