Plate Size Effects in Gravelly Soil Based on In Situ Plate Load Tests and Finite Element Analysis

Plate Size Effects in Gravelly Soil Based on In Situ Plate Load Tests and Finite Element Analysis

The average contact stress–settlement behavior observed in plate load tests provides essential data for reliable foundation design. However, the test plate is often smaller than the actual foundation, requiring size extrapolation to interpret in situ plate load test results accurately. This study co...
