Useful. Quick tests showed our soil had a much lower bearing capacity than anticipated and required wider footings.

With soils engineers there is not a lot of use for this for the average Joe. I use it when teaching excavation safety classes.

I use this in a class I teach on soils. I have the students use it on Styrofoam which gives readings similar to common soil without the mess.
