Applications
iPile can be used to test cast-in-place concrete piles and drilled shafts. The device allows you to test for multiple flaws & unknown factors such as the length of piles, voids and defects in piles & changes in pile cross-sections.
iPile’s 3 main applications are to:
👷🏻 Evaluate Continuity of Piles
👷🏻 Test Consistency of Pile Materials
👷🏻 Evaluate Physical Dimensions
How iPile Works
iPile operates based on sonic-echo (also referred to as pulse-echo) method to evaluate integrity of deep foundations and piles. The testing process is completed in three simple steps.
✅ A hand-held hammer is used to strike the pile head.
✅ The echoes from pile toe and/or internal defects are collected using iPile sensor
✅ Test results are instantly visualized on Tablet, helping engineers with data processing.
