PDA Testing of Driven Steel Piles

Project Summary

ND Geosciences Ltd. conducted a dynamic load test to evaluate the performance of driven steel piles at a commercial building project near Humboldt, SK. The test was performed using the Pile Driving Analyzer® (PDA). Upon completion of the test, we provided a comprehensive report to the Client including pile capacity, soil resistance, pile integrity, and hammer efficiency.
