The Hole Profiling Pile Imaging Test is a crucial procedure that involves meticulously examining the profile and shape of a drilled bore hole or spun pile hole. This comprehensive assessment aims to verify not only the verticality and alignment of the pile but also includes detailed measurements of the soil sediment thickness or slurry cake thickness at the pile tip.
By accurately plotting and analyzing these parameters, engineers can ensure that the pile meets the specified dimensional requirements and alignment criteria before concrete placement. This process adheres strictly to the ASTM/D8232 (2018) standards, which are essential for ensuring compliance with industry regulations and maintaining high-quality standards in construction projects.
The Hole Profiling Pile Imaging Tester (HPPIT) is a state-of-the-art testing equipment to perform hole profile (or shape) of a drilled bore hole (or spun pile hole) by plotting the hole profiling to verify the pile verticality (or alignment) prior to concrete placement.
