Webinar on Thermal Integrity Profiling of Concrete Foundations

When: November 29, 2016

Each of the sessions of this program corresponds to 1.5 Professional Development Hours. A Certificate of Participation documenting the number of hours of instruction (PDH) will be provided to those that take a short quiz at the end of the webinar. Check with your engineering board of registration for their continuing education requirements.

You will have the opportunity to learn from Mr. George Piscsalko without having to leave your desk.

Learning Objectives:

At the conclusion of the webinar attendees will be able to:  Describe the basic principles of integrity evaluation using thermal measurements  Collect data by various methods  Evaluate eccentricity of cage alignment in the shaft  Evaluate the measurements for local defects (in cross section or concrete quality)  Describe the conversion process of temperature to effective shaft radius  Recommended time window for testing after casting concrete  Compare and contrast the advantages of thermal measurements, conventional Crosshole Sonic Logging (CSL), Low Strain Integrity Testing,and Gamma-Gamma testing of drilled shafts and ACIP/CFA piles.
