Hammer impact rhythm when executing the Pile Integrity Test with Piletest PET (PIT tester)

Field test with PET of a deep pile foundation,
Notice the fast rhythm of the hammer impact and the multiple points of test on the pile head - This allows the PET software to do real-time averaging.

no putty, no flat concrete surface prepared? I struggle to get viable results even in near perfect conditions. What's the length of that pile?

Good points, you rise 1 - There is putty that is "glued" to the PET sensor but can not be seen in the video. 2 - The pile top does not need to be flat. It needs to be cleared of sand, derbies, and loose concrete so that the acoustic connection between the sensor and the concrete will be good at all tested points.

Hi. Thanks for your comment Not all piles are created equal 🙂 This is not a pile we tested - The video was sent to us by one of our loyal users. This is probably a short pile (8-12m). the soil seems to be sandy-clay- which means it is a stable, dry hole. Those are really ideal conditions. There is probably some putty on the sensor. You do not have to stick the sensor to the pile; just press the sensor to get a good acoustic coupling.
