A pressuremeter test procedure. The pressuremeter measures the strength andstress-strain properties of all soil types, including soft rock. It is usedprimarily to calculate the bearing capacity and settlement of shallow and deepfoundations, the deformation of laterally loaded piles and sheet piles, and theresistance of anchors.
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.
