Pile And Jet grout Integrity Tests
Pile And Jet grout Integrity Tests The pile integrity test enables the check up of all jet grout colons and bored piles. This way, problems related to the production's location can be identified without having to open up the ground. The integrity test is a fast and low-cost method in identifying problems. Compared to slower and more expensive methods such as core drilling, trenching survey and loading tests, the integrity test offers a faster and cheaper solution.
This experiment is conducted by hitting the top of the pile or jet group colon with a little hammer and measuring the reflection signal with a accelerometer placed on the top of the pile or jet grout colon. The pile's response can immediately be seen on the screen and can be stored in the hard drive for analysis.
