Pile Integrity Testing (PIT)

A simple and economic test carried out on concrete piles to determine the integrity of piles and the presence of any cracks, voids, discontinuities and other similar defects. An invaluable method to select the representative piles to perform the load tests. The cost effectiveness of this test enables the testing of all the piles in projects which involve hundreds of piles.

The low strain pulse echo method technology is adopted using state of the art electronic data collector and accelerometer, for analysis using special software. This test is covered under the ASTM D 5882-96 Australian standard AS 2159-1995, French standard NFP 94-06-2, among others.
