Soil Bearing Capacity in Bar Units ???
Soil Bearing Capacity in Bar Units ???
(OP)
I received soil investigation report from client in this report the last conclusion paragraph is confusing me that the value in bar unit is soil bearing capacity at specific depth or some thing else , below is the copy of paragraph.

3) DYNAMIC PENETROMETER SURVEY
A sum of 38 dynamic penotrometer survey were released on the site . The dynamic resistance diagrams show that the land is more or less homogeneous .
4) CONCLUSION.
According to the lab tests result ;one can conclude that the land presents a weak geotechnical characteristic.
Therefore the following work rate on this site should be retained:
- 0.5 bar to 1.00 m in depth compare to Natural Ground(land),
- 0.5 bar to 1,50 m in depth compare to Natural Ground(land),
- 0.4 bar to 2.00 m in depth compare to Natural Ground(land),
- 0.6 bar to 2.50 m in depth compare to Natural Ground(land),
- 0.7 bar to 3.00 m in depth compare to Natural Ground(land).
So,a rate work of 0.5 bar to 1.50 m of depth can be done on this site.

Corrected unit error.

The presentation and language of the soil report seem a little unusual to me. I would definitely want to speak to the author for clarification.

Yes it should, thanks for picking that out.
