Quality Control of Drilled Shafts

When: August 10th, 2016

Who should attend:

Geotechnical, structural and construction engineers; testers, researchers and contractors interested in learning more about high strain (PDA) testing of drilled shafts (a basic familiarity with PDA testing of driven piles is assumed) as an alternate to static load testing, quantitative inspection of shaft bottom cleanliness, as well as non-destructive evaluations of integrity using low strain dynamic foundation testing / pile integrity testing (PIT), cross hole sonic logging (CSL) and thermal integrity profiling (TIP) techniques.
