Rigorous screw pile testing

From load capacity to future stability, our testing leaves nothing to chance

SCREW PILE INTEGRITY TESTING

Testing is the final step in delivering stable screw piles. Every project relies on the integrity of its foundations, and testing verifies every screw pile is up to the task.

We integrate testing seamlessly into our process, giving builders peace of mind that their foundations meet engineering standards and perform under pressure.

StATIC LOAD TESTING

Static load testing—the gold standard for confirming screw pile integrity

Static load testing applyies a gradual, controlled load to the pile, monitoring its response. This method provides a clear picture of the pile’s performance and settlement characteristics over time.

How static load testing works

System setup

A loading frame or reaction system is installed over the pile to apply force gradually.

Load application

Controlled weights or hydraulic jacks apply increasing loads to the pile.

Data monitoring

Measurements are taken to assess settlement and load-bearing capacity.

Results analysis

We give the data to engineers to analyse the data to confirm that the pile meets project requirements.

DYNAMIC LOAD TESTING

Dynamic load testing—a fast and precise evaluation of pile capacity

Dynamic load testing uses impact force to measure stress waves and determine load-bearing performance. This method is ideal for projects with tight timelines or larger-scale installations.

How dynamic load testing works

Impact force

A mass or hammer impacts the screw pier head to generate stress waves into the pile and ground.

Data collection

Sensors measure the pile’s response to the force, capturing data on stress and velocity.

Results analysis

Results are calculated and anlyses carefully to evaluate capacity and pile integrity.

How we use technology to deliver precision testing

OUR TECHNOLOGY

  1. Advanced load monitoring

    Our testing equipment includes state-of-the-art load cells and hydraulic jacks . These tools ensure every pile meets its load requirements and delivers stable, reliable performance.

  2. Dynamic testing sensors

    For dynamic load testing, we use high-precision sensors to measure stress waves, velocity, and displacement. Real-time data allows us to assess  pile  integrity with exceptional accuracy.

  3. Real-time data collection

    Data logging systems track every metric, from applied force to settlement and alignment. This isn't just for compliance—it’s shared with your team, providing full transparency and peace of mind.

  4. Seamless integration

    All our tools are designed to integrate smoothly into the overall installation process. Whether testing during or after installation, we keep you up to date, and your project on track without delays.

Load testing impacts every step in our screw pier installation process

OUR TESTING PROCESS 

Testing isn’t just for compliance—it’s a critical to building piling foundations. That's why we integrate load testing seamlessly into our install process. Each pile is ready to perform, before the job is done.

Getting ready

PRE-installtion planning

We identify load requirements and site conditions to determine the right testing approach. And how static or dynamic testing is tailored to your project’s needs.

PLANNING

Installing piles 

Screw pile installation

Our real-time data systems monitor key metrics like torque and alignment during. This allows us to spot potential issues early and adjust before testing begins.

INSTALLATION

Load testing

Verification

Once the installation is complete, we conduct static and dynamic load tests. The results will confirm if each pile complies with engineering standards.
