Pile driving analyzer( High Strain Pile Test) will provide prediction on the pile bearing capacity, pile integrity, driving stresses and hammer performance for a given pile penetration. It is a relative low cost type of pile testing compared to static load test (MLT or CRP). The testing technique is quick and accurate.
PDT(B) tester also can be used to perform high strain pile bearing monitoring (HSPBM-Monitoring) to evaluate pile driving information for pile bearing capacity, pile integrity, driving stresses and transferred energy against pile penetration. The results are essential for the actual pile driving process and to obtain valuable data on the hammer, pile & soil system for re-design on the piled foundation (if necessary).
Pile Driving Analyzer Result
The dynamic pile test report for each pile shall contain the information required by AS 2159 and report the reliability of the maximum mobilised resistance as a percentage of the reported resistance based on the PDA data quality and CAPWAP match quality.
Key Output Results
· maximum force applied to the pile head;
· maximum pile head velocity;
· maximum energy imparted to the pile;
· maximum displacement of the pile head;
· pile capacity estimate;
· pile integrity factor (β);
· maximum compressive stress in the pile;
· maximum tensile stress in the pile;
· estimated final pile set.
