tests are:
Dynamic Load Testing is usually carried out to determine pile capacity, soil resistance
distribution and settlement characteristics of the installed bored pile to
assure that the pile undergoes the actual applied load and the settlement will
be within the tolerable limits. The
dynamic pile test utilizes the impact of a hammer drop on the pile to provide
the reaction load necessary to determine the capacity of the pile.
Caliper Logging Test is a cost-effective quality control and quality assurance tool to
ensure that the boreholes are within the acceptable design properties. Caliper
Logging Test is performed to verify the actual borehole diameter, length,
estimated volume of concrete and the location of hard & soft formation.
Cross Hole Sonic Logging Test is carried out to determine the quality and consistency of concrete
between pairs of tubes pre-installed in drilled shafts, bored piles, cast
in-situ piles and other types of concrete foundations.
Pile Integrity Test is carried out to find major faults in cast-in-place piles in order
to assure that the piles had been correctly constructed. This test is considered quick, economic and
reliable in assessment of pile foundations.
