In the international literature there is often a confusion between the terms Modulus of Elasticity, E_Young, and Modulus of Deformation, E_Def which is sometimes plainly referred to as Modulus E. In this paper the definitions of both the E_Young and the E_Def have been clarified. Moreover, a soil classification diagram has been derived based on numerical analysis through a finite element software where soils are classified according to their shear strength parameters (c, φ) and their behavior under loads generated using a rigid circular bearing plate. Finally, a method for the determination of shear strength parameters, as well as the E_Young of soils has been proposed using the insitu Plate Bearing Test and solving a 3x3 mathematical system. The study and documentation of the proposed method is supported through three theoretical examples.
