摘要

The pressuremeter test is a widely used in-situ test method in geotechnical engineering for determining ground properties. It is applicable to all types of soil and weak rocks, it records soil deformation under loading conditions. This paper presents a literature review on the application of the pressuremeter test in evaluating the behavior of foundations under load. It explores the methods used to interpret pressuremeter test data in various soil types, reviews the different analytical models employed, and focuses on approaches for assessing the behavior of foundations using pressuremeter test results. The achievements and limitations of each method are presented and discussed. Despite the extensive literature on the applications, interpretation, and development of the pressuremeter test, its use in evaluating the behavior of foundations under load remains limited. This work seeks to address this research gap by identifying challenges in utilizing pressuremeter test data for such analyses and providing recommendations for future research. This work aims to encourage further investigation into the potential of pressuremeter tests for advancing the understanding of foundation behavior under loading conditions.
