  1. When it comes to understanding soil strength and subsurface conditions for construction and engineering projects, Super Heavy Dynamic Probing plays a critical role. This advanced soil testing method provides accurate and efficient data about soil resistance and density, helping engineers make informed decisions for safe and stable foundation design At AVZ GeoEng, we specialize in conducting precise Super Heavy Dynamic Probing tests to assess soil properties for construction, infrastructure, and geotechnical projects across various terrains and conditions. What Is Super Heavy Dynamic Probing? Super Heavy Dynamic Probing (DPSH) is a field test used to evaluate the strength and compactness of soil. The process involves driving a specially designed cone into the ground using a standardized weight dropped from a specific height. The resistance encountered by the cone as it penetrates the soil provides valuable information about the soil’s density and bearing capacity. It’s part of a family of dynamic probing tests (like DPL, DPM, and DPH) but uses a heavier hammer and stronger energy impact, making it suitable for deeper and denser soils where lighter probes can’t reach. How Does Super Heavy Dynamic Probing Work? The test procedure involves: 1.A Cone Tip: Attached to a series of rods, driven into the soil by a heavy hammer. 2.A Drop Weight: Typically 63.5 kg, dropped from a height of 760 mm to provide consistent energy. 3.Measurement: The number of blows required to drive the cone a set distance (usually 10 cm) is recorded. These readings are then used to calculate the dynamic penetration resistance (N-value), which helps determine the soil’s load-bearing characteristics and compaction levels. Why Use Super Heavy Dynamic Probing?

  2. Super Heavy Dynamic Probing is a preferred choice for engineers and contractors because it provides reliable data quickly and cost-effectively. Here’s why it’s so important: 1.Accurate Soil Strength Assessment It helps determine the consistency and compactness of soil layers, which is crucial for foundation design and earthwork planning. 2.Suitable for Deep and Dense Soils With its heavier weight and deeper penetration ability, the DPSH test can assess soils where lighter tests (like DPL or DPM) fail to reach. 3.Time and Cost Efficiency Compared to borehole drilling or laboratory testing, Super Heavy Dynamic Probing is faster and less expensive while still delivering valuable field data. 4.On-Site Real-Time Results The test can be performed directly on-site, giving engineers immediate feedback about soil conditions. 5.Correlation with Other Tests The results can be correlated with Standard Penetration Test (SPT) data, making it a versatile tool in geotechnical investigations. Applications of Super Heavy Dynamic Probing Super Heavy Dynamic Probing is widely used across several geotechnical and construction applications, including: •Foundation and piling design. •Road and pavement construction. •Embankment and slope stability analysis. •Land reclamation and compaction control. •Pre-construction soil investigation. At AVZ GeoEng, our experts use advanced DPSH equipment and calibrated methods to ensure accurate soil profiling, even in challenging ground conditions.
