c2012.
"A Rapid Load Test (RLT) developed to determine the initial stiffness and bearing capacity, is an economical and practical alternative for a Static Load Test (SLT) . However, the application of RLT used to be hampered by uncertainty about the interpretation of the test results. These guidelines attempt to offer clear guidance on the available analysis techniques and their reliability"--Provided by publisher.
