= Tilt test (geotechnical engineering)
{wiki=Tilt_test_(geotechnical_engineering)}
A tilt test in geotechnical engineering is a method used to assess the stability and behavior of soil or earth structures, particularly in the context of slope stability and the performance of retaining walls or embankments. The test primarily aims to evaluate the potential for tilting or rotation of the structure under various conditions, such as changes in load, moisture content, or earthquake activity.
