Capabilities

Dynamic Testing and Analysis

Provides dynamic evaluations of pile driving and deep foundation performance to optimize structural design.

  • Dynamic Pile Testing and Analyses

    Offers high-strain dynamic monitoring using Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA) and CAPWAP analysis to determine pile capacity and integrity.

  • Wave Equation Analysis

    Conducts preconstruction hammer and pile driving performance modeling to predict stresses and capacity.

  • Preconstruction Driving Analyses

    Assesses drivability, equipment suitability, and design feasibility before field operations begin.

Geotechnical Field Testing

Delivers field-based quality control and physical testing services to ensure structural integrity.

  • SPT Hammer Energy Measurements

    Performs calibration and energy transfer measurements on Standard Penetration Test hammers.

  • Crosshole Sonic Logging

    Evaluates the concrete quality and integrity of drilled shafts using ultrasonic transmitter and receiver probes.

  • Sonic Pulse-Echo Testing

    Utilizes low-strain integrity testing to detect structural defects or anomalies in piles.

  • Field Testing for Quality Control

    Conducts real-time construction monitoring to verify compliance with engineering specifications.

Hydroacoustic and Sound Monitoring

Measures and mitigates underwater sound levels during marine construction activities.

  • Hydroacoustic Field Monitoring

    Collects real-time underwater sound pressure measurements during impact or vibratory pile driving.

  • Underwater Sound Mitigation

    Assists in designing and implementing systems to meet environmental compliance goals and protect marine life.

Geotechnical Consulting and Project Support

Assists owners and contractors throughout the planning, bidding, and post-construction phases of foundation projects.

  • Site Investigation Support

    Provides engineering analysis to inform foundation design and address site variability.

  • Bid and Tender Support

    Helps constructors develop competitive proposals by optimizing pile selection and driving criteria.

  • Post-Construction Forensic Analysis

    Investigates and analyzes foundation issues or failures to find effective remedies.
