you test the soil to check how much PH it has. plants need the right PH
There are soil test kits that are electronic and measure the soil levels. There are also soil test kits that use the small amounts of your garden soil and mix with the testers ingredients to read the levels.
Bearing capacity of soil
to make sure the soil isn't polluted.
You can use a Soil Test kit (Rapitest Soil Test Kit) to find the pH and levels of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.
Estimate the thickness of the soil over the area (test pits will help with this) - measure the average density of the soil (out of the test pits). You then have:- The "area" tiles the "thickness" = the volume of soil. Volume times density = weight.
The plural of soil test is soil tests. As in "soil tests were carried out at the incident site".

Explain Soil
to make sure the soil isn't polluted.
You can use a Soil Test kit (Rapitest Soil Test Kit) to find the pH and levels of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.
There are test kits available from local nurseries that can be used to test the pH levels in your soil. These are considered to be do it yourself kits, but the soil can also be tested by a soil lab.
It depends what test is being carried out
SBC is the safe bearing capacity of a soil, beyond this value if soil is loaded, it will fail to bear the load applied on it and will fail. Its value can be found out by standard penetration test, plate load test or cone penetration test.
