Static Load Tests SLT Dynamic Load Tests DLT Pile Integrity Testing PIT / PET / CSL
The tests are performed by applying a maintained load method or a CPR (Constant Rate of Penetration) type tests. Thanks to the application of an up-to-date apparatus, we have the capacity to carry out cyclic tests, e.g. to simulate loads in railway track or vehicle traffic environment. Kentledge Static Load Tests - Due to high costs of handling and operating of hoisting equipment, kentledge load tests are performed exclusively in cases where there is no possibility to use anchor piles, or anchor pile capacity is insufficient. Kentledge is also often used to carry out zone load tests, e.g. in case of gravel columns or improved soils.
Static Load Tests with Anchor Piles - To carry our this type of test, extra-fine steel beams are required, hence their deformation under load is minimal. Threaded bars DYWIDAG Prestressing Steel THREADBAR are applied as connecting members to join beams to
anchor piles. A wide range of our beams provides possibilities of test loading within a range of 100 kN up to 30 MN plus, using two/three/four/six/eight anchor piles arranged around the pile to be tested
Static Load Testing Applying a Compound Method (anchor-kentledge) it is a combination of the two methods described above.
Cross-Hole Sonic Logging - The test utilizes a phenomenon of ultrasonic wave propagation in the pile material - concrete. Performance of the test requires embedding from one to several steel tubes during concreting the pile so as to enable insertion of two probes: a transmitter and a receiver. When four tubes are used, up to six profiles of the pile can be obtained. The up-to-date software: Tomography 3D by the Piletest Com. Ltd. provides a threedimensional picture of the pile shaft.
