Pressure Meter Test: N I N S I S 2

This document summarizes the results of a pressure meter test conducted on a borehole (BH No. VBH-195) at a test depth of 3 meters. The test involved taking pressure and radius measurements at increasing pressure intervals between 0 and 9.17 kg/cm2. Based on the initial and final pressure, radius, and estimated Poisson's ratio, the modulus of elasticity and shear modulus of the soil were calculated from the test data graphs and equations.
