  I am currently doing plate load test and I don't know how use which formula to calculate modulus of subsoil, Ks.

graphically we can obtain the ultimate bearing capacity of the subsoil base on the settlement vs load and settlement vs time (log) graph but how do i calculate the Ks value?
isnt the Tezagi approach very impractical and covservative?


Pls advise anyone!!!
