Static Load Tester (SLT)

Uploaded by

John STC

The Static Load Tester provides quick and accurate monitoring of force and displacement during static load tests. It automatically obtains readings from up to 16 channels at programmable intervals, allowing real-time monitoring of load tests. Static load testing evaluates load resistance of deep foundations by applying load slowly, and the tester monitors data from pile-top and embedded sensors to determine capacity and load-transfer behavior.

Static Load Tester (SLT)


Provides quick and accurate monitoring of force
and displacement during a static load test

Accurate. Proven. Reliable.


The Static Load Tester (SLT) automatically
obtains and records reliable readings at
programmable time intervals during a static
load test. The system allows for monitoring
of up to 16 independent channels taken
from traditional pile-top measurements or
from embedded sensors from each data
acquisition box. As many as 16 boxes can
be connected to the Static Load Tester at
once. Automatic data collection and display
allows real time monitoring, analysis, and
interpretation of results.

What is Static Load Testing?


Static load testing is used to evaluate the
load resistance behavior of deep foundations
prior to structure construction. It differs from
rapid and dynamic load testing in that the
load is applied to the deep foundation
slower. Static Load Tests can be performed
to validate foundation design assumptions
regarding the axial compression or axial
tension resistance provided by a deep
foundation element, or its deflected shape
under a lateral load. Conventional readings
of the applied load determined from the
jack pressure gage and load cell, and deep
foundation head movement determined
by LVDTs, digital dial gages, or mechanical
dial gages, can be combined with the SLT
to determine the capacity or nominal soil
resistance, the load-transfer behavior under • Allows monitoring of multiple data
axial loads, or deflected shape under lateral collection boxes at once
loads. The Static Load Tester also reads strain • Up to 16 channels per data acquisition box
gages and vibrating wire gages. with smart universal inputs
• Offers real-time graphical presentation of
load, strain, displacement and pressure
measurements
SiteLink® (Remote Testing)
• A cost and time efficient alternate to traditional on-site testing
• Real time field to office data transmission via Internet
• Simple field setup

PDI’s Static Load Tester includes:


• 16 Channels (12 analog and 4 digital) for
each data acquisition box with smart
universal inputs
• Remote data collection box(es) capable
of being daisy-chained for a large
number of sensors
• Wireless configuration for easy set up and
remote operation
• Real-time graphical presentation of
load, strain, displacement, and pressure
measurements
• SLT-S software will handle compression
(both top-down and bi-directional),
tension, and lateral load

Remote Operation
The SLT Tablet is equipped for high-speed
internet access and remote operation, error
checking and updating. The SLT operates in
traditional, SI or metric units.
Static load tests are standardized by ASTM
D1143, Standard Test Methods for Deep
Foundations Under Static Axial Compressive
Load; ASTM D3689, Standard Test Methods
for Deep Foundations Under Static Axial
Tensile Load; and ASTM D3966, Standard
Test Methods for Deep Foundations Under
Lateral Load.
