Pile Test Equipment Rentals
Pile Testing
We have the largest inventory in North America of hydraulic jacks and loadcells. All calibrations are performed in house with results traceable back to NIST. We have the ability to overnight equipment anywhere in North America. If needed we provided Trained on site personnel to assist with setup training and also to monitor and record the Load Test Results. Please contact us and let our staff help you with your application.
We can provide jacking equipment to test driven piles from 1 -2000 tons. The systems can be manually, electrically or automatically controlled. They can be accompanied with a load cell and digital readout box. Static load tests points have proven to save money while providng accurate data. See Pile Driver article on the Rhode Island Department of Transportation project.
Travel dial sets can be provided to monitor the movement of the pile while performing the load test.
Please read the article in Pile Driver Magazine about Innovative static load test points to savings for the Rhode Island Department of Transportation.
The hydraulic jacking system used, which consisted of four 1,800 kip double acting hydraulic jacks, was provided by WB Equipment Service Company Inc.

Pile testing is a critical process in the construction industry that helps to ensure the safety and stability of structures built on piles. Piles are deep foundation elements that are driven into the ground to support heavy loads, such as buildings or bridges.
Pile testing is used to determine the load-carrying capacity of a pile and to verify that it meets the design requirements. There are several methods of pile testing, including static load testing, dynamic load testing, and integrity testing.
Each method has its advantages and limitations, and the appropriate method depends on the specific project requirements. Proper pile testing can help to prevent costly failures and ensure the safety of workers and the public. Pile testing should be performed by trained professionals using specialized equipment and procedures to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Regular testing throughout the construction process can help to ensure that piles are installed and tested correctly, and that the project meets all safety and performance requirements.
