PET
Pile Integrity Test
PET Uses the pulse-echo method (PEM, PIT) for pile integrity testing. A pile test starts when the pile top is struck with a handheld hammer and the PET digital accelerometer records the reflected waves on the computer screen. The resulting signal (reflectogram) readily provides information regarding the pile's length and integrity.
This is the primary method used in the industry for a quick pile integrity test, to control the quality of piles on a site with a large number of piles.
Two PET versions are available:
PT001 - PET Pro USB
PT002 - PET Bluetooth.
Fully supports the following standards:
ASTM D5882-16, AFNOR P160-2,4

CHUM
Cross Hole Ultrasonic Monitor with
Tomography support
CHUM supports Cross Hole Sonic Logging (CSL) as well as Single Hole Ultrasonic Testing (SHUT, SSL) and enables on site in real-time two-dimensional Tomography (2DT) - and off-site, true three-dimensional Tomography (3DT,CSLT) analysis.
This is the primary method used in the industry for for high resolution testing of large drilled piles (ACIP)
Fully supports the following standards:
ASTM D6760-16, AFNOR NF P 94-160-1 (2000).
What our customers say about the CHUM
"We are lucky to have the CHUM, easy to use, get the results, and explain to client/consultant. " -

BIT
Borehole Inclination Tester
BIT quickly and accurately measures the inclination (verticality) of a dry/wet borehole during and after drilling - without the need for a heavy caliper. It uses the drill machine bucket as a centralizer for its sensor. Custom-made centralizers are available too.
It can also test a pile inclination - without the need for special expensive inclinometer tubes with grooves. A centralizer fitted to the available access tube guides the BIT inclination sensor.
BIT is based on gyro technology, to enable simple, fast, and productive inclination testing, with a very lightweight system that can be handled by a single operator.
Fully supports the standard: ASTM D8232 - 18
PSI

Parallel Seismic Instrument
PSI uses the well-known Parallel Seismic method to establish the depth of existing foundations (piles) where the superstructure (i.e. existing building) precludes access to the pile's head.
The test requires the installation of a plastic access tube in parallel, and as close as possible, to the tested pile. The tube should be carried down to a depth exceeding the assumed pile length by a margin of 8-10m and filled with water. In unsaturated soils, the tube should be firmly grouted in the hole to achieve good coupling with the surrounding soil.
