TITLE:
Menard pressuremeter G type
DESCRIPTION:
Menard pressuremeter is used to determine the deformation characteristics and stress state in soils. Pressuremeter probe is either put in to a bohole, diameter 66 mm or pushed in to the soil with maximum depth of 30 m, where up to 10 MPa of pressure can be applied on the surrounding soil. The result of measurement is stress - strain curve from which it is possible to obtain and assess some of the properties in-situ stress state. From the data curve, among other characteristics, it is possible to determine elastic modulus of rock, reload-unload elastic module, limit of plastic deformation, horizontal pressure, shear modulus and limit pressure.
