## EV2 Static Plate Load Testing

ATLES (Asif Test Labs and Engineering Services) delivers EV2 Plate Load Testing to provide accurate geotechnical investigation and quality assurance for road construction, runway subgrades, and heavy foundation beds.

The EV2 Test (Static Plate Load Test for Deformation Modulus) evaluates the bearing capacity and deformation characteristics of soil and subgrade layers.

Procedure: During this testing process, our experienced engineering team places a rigid circular steel plate on the prepared ground surface and applies load in controlled stages using a hydraulic jack and reaction system. Measurements recorded across initial loading (Ev1) and secondary reloading (Ev2) determine the compaction ratio Ev2/Ev1.
