E N D
Main Points of Presentation • plate load tests (determination of deformability of soils and compaction rate identification) • dynamic penetration tests (confirmation of bedrock, cavity localization, deduction of mechanical parametres of soils) • borehole tests of deformation properties (determination of deformabilityorstrenght parametres of soils and rocks) – presiometer Menard, uniaxial jack Goodman • tests of pile integrity (by ultrasound measurement or by method SIT - Sonic Integrity Testing) • supervision and evaluation of results of pile dynamic tests by method PDA • inspection of borehole and audiovizual record form TV probe
Method DP is possible to use for: Dynamic penetration tests • determination of soil compaction or consistency • determination of boundary between surface deposits and bedrock • determination of boundary between different ground bearing capacity and determination of soil layer thickness • landfill and backfill degree compaction control • determination of slip plane position and shape on slides • searching and checking of voids and caverns • approximate determination of the modulus of deformation Edef • river bed, lake bed and water reservoir bed sounding for determination of alluvium thickness • complementation of borehole investigation
