Abstract: The plate load test is an insitu testing method that is to determine the bearing capacity and the deformation moduli within the influence zone of the testing plate. This method has the advantage of simple to apply and is also reliable. This paper presents a case history of applying the plate load testing in the soil replacement with gravel for a retaining wall construction in the near shore roadway project.
