Ground Investigation | Re-evaluation of the Cost of Ground Bearing Capacity Assessment to Prevent Uneven Loading of Factory Energy Storage Containers
Prevent uneven loading of battery storage containers! Thoroughly review excessive reinforcement work with a second opinion on ground bearing capacity evaluation to maintain safety and significantly reduce construction costs.
The introduction of container-type storage batteries to factory sites is progressing, but it is prone to uneven loading due to the consolidation of internal equipment, and cases where expensive steel pipe piles or deep ground improvement are specified due to excessive safety factor assumptions are not uncommon. Geotech provides a second opinion service on other companies' surveys and simple penetration data, conducting precise ground bearing capacity reassessments based on plate load tests on the foundation bearing surface. By directly calculating the true allowable bearing capacity and ground reaction coefficient of shallow ground from multi-stage loading data on the actual pressure surface, we scientifically verify the risk of differential settlement under uneven loading. By presenting objective physical evidence, we eliminate unnecessary reinforcement work specifications and demonstrate the validity of changing to direct foundation specifications such as mat foundations. This significantly reduces unnecessary foundation reinforcement costs and piling processes, optimizing capital investment costs and enabling early operational commencement. High-quality reports that comply with public standards also facilitate smooth approval of confirmation applications, achieving a high level of both economic efficiency and safety.
basic information
In accordance with JGS1521 (Method for Plate Load Test on Ground), a multi-stage load test will be conducted using a rigid steel loading plate with a diameter of 300 mm and a hydraulic jack at the foundation bearing surface. A hydraulic backhoe and other devices will be used as reaction devices, and by incrementally applying actual loads, the ultimate bearing capacity, long-term and short-term allowable bearing capacities, as well as the ground reaction coefficient (K value) and deformation coefficient (E value) will be accurately derived. The amount of settlement will be automatically collected and recorded using a high-precision displacement meter, eliminating speculative calculations that could lead to excessive design. Equipment calibrated under the company's ISO9001 quality standards will be used, and qualified specialists will complete detailed re-evaluation analysis and report preparation.

Applications/Examples of results
It is ideal for second opinion assessments when excessive ground reinforcement costs are anticipated during the installation of container-type storage batteries at factories and business sites. It can be utilized to reduce construction costs by avoiding excessive piling and deep improvement, and to validate the allowable ground pressure for floor slabs and shallow foundations. Additionally, it contributes widely to the rationalization and cost optimization of industrial energy infrastructure investments by re-evaluating the settlement risk of substations and cubicle foundations with uneven weight distribution, verifying the bearing capacity of existing factory vacant spaces, and submitting evidence of changes to regulatory review agencies.
