Standard Test Method for Prebored Pressuremeter Testing in …
1.1 This test method covers pressuremeter testing of soils.A pressuremeter test is an in situ stress-strain test performed on the wall of a borehole using a cylindrical probe that is expanded radially. To obtain viable test results, disturbance to the borehole wall must be minimized. 1.2 This test method includes the procedure for drilling the
