To convert bearing capacity to California Bearing Ratio (CBR) value, you can use empirical relationships or correlations established through field and laboratory testing. A common method is to apply the formula: CBR = (q / P) × 100, where ( q ) is the bearing capacity (in kPa) and ( P ) is the pressure corresponding to a CBR of 100 (typically around 2000 kPa for standard tests). It’s important to note that this conversion can vary based on soil type and conditions, so local calibration may be necessary for accurate results.
Taken from a NASA paper (2010 ASCE Earth & Space, Robotic Lunar Geotechnical Tool);Bearing pressure (kN/m2) = 26.16CBR0.664NOTE: this is only an approximation as there is no real direct correlation between bearing pressure and CBR
A CBR value of 10-15% is generally considered good for soil in terms of its strength and bearing capacity. Higher CBR values indicate better soil strength and load-bearing capacity, which is important for road construction and other engineering purposes.

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.

CBR stands for "City Bike Racer" in Honda CBR motorcycles, a line of sport bikes manufactured by Honda.
SBC Global, which was originally a brand associated with SBC Communications, is now part of AT&T Inc. After SBC acquired AT&T Corp. in 2005, the SBC Global brand was gradually phased out, and services transitioned under the AT&T name. Therefore, AT&T Inc. is the owner of what was once known as SBC Global.
