How Engineers Use Bi-Directional Static Load Testing with Pressurized Cells on Drilled Shafts

GRL Engineers use the Bi-Directional Static Load Test on deep foundations to determine load capacity. The GRL-Cell is a high capacity device installed within a deep foundation to statically load test the foundation. Shaft and toe movements as well as embedded strain gage instrumentation are monitored for each applied load. An estimated top load movement curve is constructed from the measured shaft resistance load-movement and base resistance load-movement responses.
