pileintegritetstester
Pileintegritetstester are non-destructive testing methods used to assess the structural integrity of deep foundations, commonly known as piles. These tests are crucial for ensuring that piles, which transfer building loads to deeper soil or rock layers, are sound and free from defects that could compromise their load-bearing capacity. The primary goal is to identify issues such as cracks, voids, inclusions, or significant reductions in cross-sectional area within the pile shaft.
Various techniques fall under the umbrella of pile integrity testing. One common method is the low-strain impact
Another important category includes high-strain dynamic testing. This involves applying a large impact to the pile
The results from pile integrity testing are essential for quality control during construction and for evaluating
