Webinar on Pile Integrity Testing, Cross Hole Sonic Logging and Basic Principles of Thermal Integrity Profiling

Pile Dynamics, Inc. (PDI), will present a three-day webinar on Integrity Testing of Concrete Foundations by Low Strain Dynamic Testing (PIT), Cross Hole Sonic Logging (CSL) and Basic Principles of Thermal Integrity Profiling (TIP). The webinar consists of 3 sessions of at least 2 hours each on December 3, 4 & 5, 2019 at 9:00 AM Eastern Time (New York Time). Ryan Allin, a senior engineer and partner in GRL Engineers and Pile Dynamics, will present.

PIT/CSL Learning Objectives: ($300 for both sessions)

At the conclusion of the webinar attendees will be able to:

•  Compare and contrast each test method, based on advantages, best use and limitations
•  Adequately prepare the foundation and select the equipment for an integrity test by PIT and CSL
•  Correctly enter necessary input on test equipment
•  Analyze field data with the appropriate software for both PIT and CSL Interpret the severity of flaws and defects pinpointed by the tests

TIP Learning Objectives: ($100 for TIP session)

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 the time window for testing after casting concrete
•  Compare and contrast the advantages of thermal measurements, conventional Crosshole Sonic Logging
•  (CSL) and Gamma-Gamma testing of drilled shafts

Program:

• 12/3-Pile Integrity Testing – 2 hours
• 12/4-Cross Hole Sonic Logging – 2 hours
• 12/5-Thermal Integrity Profiling – 2 hours

Cost:

• $300 per connection for Integrity Testing of Concrete Foundations by Low Strain Dynamic Testing, Cross Hole Sonic Logging sessions.
• $100 per connection for Basic Principles of Thermal Integrity Profiling
