The paper deals with technical solutions and construction of a testing stand designed for experimental measurements of deformations and state of stress of foundation structures placed on the subsoil. The designed structural system, the analysis of internal forces and the range of maximal loading during experiments are described in detail. The testing stand was constructed in 2010 at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, VSB-TU of Ostrava. The testing stand was ready for start of experiments at the end of 2010.
