Pile Test Services
The Hole Profiling Pile Imaging Test (HPPIT) examines a pile’s internal structure by analyzing data from a probe lowered through a pre-installed access tube. This method creates a detailed profile of the pile, identifying structural anomalies and cross-sectional changes, with a simple setup and time-efficient.
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Test Name | Hole Profiling Pile Imaging Test |
| Test Purpose | To create a detailed profile of the pile's internal structure by analyzing the response of a probe lowered through the pile. |
| Test Standard | ASTM/D8232 (2018) |
| Test Procedure | A probe is lowered through a pre-installed access tube, and data is collected to create an image of the pile's internal structure. |
| Load Application | Not applicable, as the test is based on imaging rather than mechanical load application. |
| Test Measurement | Data from the probe is used to generate an image or profile of the pile's internal structure. |
| Key Parameters | Structural anomalies, cross-sectional changes, and pile integrity. |
| Test Duration | Typically takes a few hours to complete, depending on pile length and complexity. |
| Test Applications | Used for detailed inspection of pile integrity and structure, especially in complex or critical projects. |
| Test Advantages | Provides a comprehensive view of the pile's internal structure, identifying defects and changes in cross-section. |
| Test Limitations | Requires pre-installed access tubes and can be time-consuming and costly compared to simpler tests. |
