Our new video "Pile Integrity Test" is on YouTube
Pile Integrity Tester (PIT-Q) assesses the structural integrity of augered cast-in-place, continuous flight auger, drilled displacement and bored piles, drilled shafts, driven concrete or timber piles and concrete filled pipes.
The Pile Integrity Tester performs Low Strain Impact Integrity Testing by the Pulse (or Sonic) Echo or Transient Response Methods. These methods are also collectively known as Pile Integrity Testing or Low Strain Dynamic Testing. The interpretation of PIT data may reveal potentially dangerous defects such as major cracks, necking, soil inclusions or voids and, in some situations, may determine unknown lengths of piles that support existing structures such as bridges or towers.
