What force is applied to the probe during the Test procedure for Completely Bounded Nonrigid Openings?

  1. 25 lb/ft (111N)

  2. 50 lb/ft (222N)

  3. 75 lb/ft (333N)

  4. 100 lb/ft (444N)

The correct answer is: 50 lb/ft (222N)

During the test procedure for Completely Bounded Nonrigid Openings, a force of 50 lb/ft (222N) is applied to the probe. This force is necessary to simulate the weight of the surrounding soil or rock that would be pushing against the opening in its natural state. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they either apply too much or too little force to accurately simulate the conditions of the opening in its natural state. It is important for the force to be applied appropriately in order to obtain accurate and reliable results during the testing process.
