This International Standard is applicable to the testing procedures for foundations of overhead line structures. The object of this standard is to provide procedures which apply to the investigation of the load-carrying capacity and/or the load response (deflection or rotation) of the foundation as an interaction between the foundation and the surrounding soil and/or rock. The mechanical strength of the structural components is not within the object of this standard.
