High Strain Dynamic Pile Testing by Pile Driving Analyzer

High Strain Dynamic Pile Testing is an alternate pile testing technique which takes less time for test preparation and conducting, compared to the conventional static pile load test. This test method is used to obtain the force and velocity through measured strain and acceleration induced in a pile during the impact of an axial force. This test method is suitable for all type of deep foundation units i.e. pile or any other type of similar nature whether cast-in-situ or driven type. One of a very significant advantage of the High Strain Dynamic Pile Testing is its performance in non-destructive manner which not only save times but surely cut back the testing cost significantly. The following PDA results are typically obtained on site: Mobilized Static load capacity based on CASE method Pile Integrity – location and extent of damage. Driving stresses –maximum compression / tension forces at pile top/toe Hammer performance-maximum energy transferred to pile. ============================ Read Complete Article here https://www.iamcivilengineer.com/2018/08/high-strain-dynamic-pile-testing.html * Visit our Blog https://www.iamcivilengineer.com * Subscribe to our Channel https://www.youtube.com/c/saadiqbalengr * follow us on twitter https://www.twitter.com/iamcivilengg * follow us on facebook https://www.facebook.com/iamcivilengineerdotcom
