Assessing Pile Bearing Capacity Summary
Task Execution
To ensure an accurate assessment of pile capacity, SLT is conducted in several steps:
The pile head is cleaned and prepared for hydraulic jacks, which apply the load. Displacement sensors are installed to measure the pile head movement.
The load is applied incrementally and held at each stage (ML-test) or progressively applied to maintain a constant penetration rate (CRP-test).
The movement of the pile head is recorded in real time, allowing the creation of a load-movement curve that illustrates how the pile responds to applied forces.
The collected data is analyzed using methods such as Davisson offset, Hansen’s criterion, and Chin-Kondner extrapolation to determine the pile’s capacity and optimize its design.
Benefits of Static Load Testing
Provides detailed insights into the pile’s ability to withstand vertical and horizontal loads.
One of the most trusted testing methods, used in compliance with national and international standards.
Instrumented piles allow for an analysis of shaft and toe resistance, leading to more efficient designs and cost savings.
Can be conducted in various load configurations, including compression, tension, and lateral loading, depending on project requirements.
