STATRAPID LOAD TESTING
StatRapid is a method for Rapid Load Testing: A powerful quasi static test method for determining the static load capacity of piles in compliance with ASTM D7383 and EuroCode 22477
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
Fast method for high strain pile testing
Embodies advantages of SLT and DLT and eliminates disadvantages of these
Direct measurement of force and displacements
Load-settlement diagram as direct output without a stress wave analysis (no signal matching)
Test execution user-independent
High accuracy, reliability, and reproducible
Fully compliant with international standards (ASTM, EuroCode, etc)
StatRapid device ready in Down Town Utrecht to perform Rapid Load Testing
Rapid Load Testing is a method were a pile is loaded in a short moment, giving a gentle push on the pile top. This method is much faster than static load testing. The duration of the load is much longer than during a Dynamic Load Test or PDA. Due to the long duration of the load, no stress waves phenomena are involved. When the requirements of the quasi static situation are fulfilled, the interpretation of the Rapid Load Test results are straightforward, without stress wave analysis and without Signal Matching. As a result, the results of Rapid Load Tests are more accurate, reliable, and man-independent.
Rapid Load Testing has two major test methods: StatNamic and StatRapid.
STATRAPID
StatRapid is the quasi static, high strain test method for determination of the bearing capacity of foundation piles. Within the StatRapid test method a drop weight is dropped on a special designed StatRapid cushioning. Due to its special characteristics, the kinetic energy of the drop weight is transferred in a relative long duration push on top of the pile. StatRapid is based on the Rapid Load Testing method, and therefor combines all benefits from Static and Dynamic Testing: A StatRapid Load Test requires limited time, lower costs and yields high accuracy results.
STATNAMIC
StatNamic has been developed in the 80’s of last century, and was the first test method for Rapid Load Testing. The method is based on launching a mass from the pile top. Using the Newton law’s, for Force = Mass * Acceleration and Action=Reaction, the StatNamic test device gave a gentle, short push on top of the pile. Long enough to avoid stress wave phenomena.
MONITORING SENSORS
The monitoring system of the any Rapid Load Testing, i.e. StatRapid or StatNamic, consists of the PDR data acquisition unit and various sensors recording the following quantities at the pile top:
The load, measured with one or more load cells
The displacements with the Allnamics Reyca optical system with reflector on the pile
The accelerations with a sensitive accelerometer
Direct measurements of loads and settlements gives direct measured load-settlement diagrams. By analysing the results with the Unloading Point Method, according to ASTM and EuroCodes (and other codes), the static load diagram is obtained.
SPECIFICATIONS AND CODES
The tests of the Rapid Load Testing are in compliance with a.o. ASTM D7383, and EuroCode EN ISO-22477-10, as well as other national codes (i.e. Dutch CUR-230). According to these codes:
Test data analysis based on user-independent principles,
No signal matching is required: direct load-settlement diagram as output
Taking into account loading rate dependencies of the soil (as for DLT and PDA)
ADVANTAGES
Test data analysis based on user-independent principles,
No signal matching is required.
Taking into account loading rate dependencies of the soil (as for DLT and PDA)
