A plate-bearing load test on the head of a single deep foundation element, per ASTMD1194 (withdrawn in 2003, still in practical use), ASTM D1195/D1196 or DIN 18134. Ithas no fields of its own; diggs:AbstractPlateBearingTestProcedureType carrieseverything it needs. It is distinguished from diggs:ZoneLoadTest by whatTest/samplingFeatureRef cites: a single diggs:RIColumn here, adiggs:LoadTransferPlatform there.
Database handle for the object. It is of XML type ID, so is constrained to beunique in the XML document within which it occurs. An external identifier for the object inthe form of a URI may be constructed using standard XML and XPointer methods. This is doneby concatenating the URI for the document, a fragment separator, and the value of the idattribute.
