Geotech Question.... "Plates"??
Geotech Question.... "Plates"??
(OP)
I have a lighter geotech question...
I usually see at least one geotech report a day from various different geotech companies. The report formats and setups are usually similar across all the various companies.
My question is: How come the items located in the Appendix of the reports are referred to as "Plates"
I'm assuming that term is older jargon or maybe a technical term?
Asking for a friend....... Thanks!

My tip for reading these reports is to go straight to the recommendations and skip the 20+ pages of 'legalese' that accompanies all the reports. Sometimes all the values you need are right in the recommendation section.

a "plate" is something that cant be created using traditional printing characters (fonts or glyphs). Photos and drawings needed an engraved plate. with the advent of the xerox machine and then scanner and digital printing, true "plates" are no longer used.
