$\begin{array}{cccc}\text{(A)}& \text{Modulus of subgrade reaction}& \text{1.}& \text{Cyclic pile load test}\\ \text{(B)}& \text{Relative density and strength}& \text{2.}& \text{Pressure meter test}\\ \text{(C)}& \text{Skin friction and point bearing resistance}& \text{3.}& \text{Plate load test}\\ \text{(D)}& \text{Elastic constants}& \text{4.}& \text{Standard penetration tests}\\ & & 5.& \text{Dynamic cone penetration test}\end{array}$

• A. $\begin{array}{cccc}\text{A}& \text{B}& \text{C}& \text{D}\\ \text{1}& \text{3}& \text{2}& \text{5}\end{array}$
• B. $\begin{array}{cccc}\text{A}& \text{B}& \text{C}& \text{D}\\ \text{1}& \text{2}& \text{4}& \text{3}\end{array}$
• C. $\begin{array}{cccc}\text{A}& \text{B}& \text{C}& \text{D}\\ \text{2}& \text{5}& \text{1}& \text{3}\end{array}$
• D. $\begin{array}{cccc}\text{A}& \text{B}& \text{C}& \text{D}\\ \text{3}& \text{4}& \text{1}& \text{2}\end{array}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $\begin{array}{cccc}\text{A}& \text{B}& \text{C}& \text{D}\\ \text{3}& \text{4}& \text{1}& \text{2}\end{array}$

Cyclic pile load test - skin friction and point bearing resistance
Pressure meter test - is an insitu test, used to achieve a quick and easy measure of stress strain relationship of soil which provides parameter such as Elastic Constant.
Plate Load Test - For modulus of subgrade reaction.
Standard Penetration Test - Relative density and strength
Dynamic Cone Penetration Test - Soil Resistance
