Integrity test in Erfurt
Low-strain and cross-hole, large quantities. For Thuringia, Erfurt, Jena, Gotha, with own measurement technology and travel distance under 1 hour from Gotha.
What the test delivers.
Test of construction quality: length, cross-section, necking, defects. Low-strain from the pile head for the whole site, cross-hole between measuring tubes for the core of large bored piles.
Details on the method are on the service page Integrity test.
Thuringian basin with Muschelkalk, Keuper and Röt, widespread leaching in sulphate rock, plus thick loess covers and soft floodplain sediments in the valleys.
Subrosion creates cavities and sinkholes that no grid survey reliably finds. Loess loses structure when saturated. Whoever founds here without measurement relies on a soil model the ground has not confirmed.
Integrity test in four steps.
- Clean pile heads, define measuring points
- Low-strain per pile, cross-hole between measuring tubes if needed
- Signal evaluation, flag conspicuous piles
- Report per pile, documented and legally sound
The structural engineer gets numbers instead of assumptions. Measured bearing capacity allows a proof per Eurocode 7 without blanket safety margins.
Thuringia, Erfurt, Jena, Gotha is geologically inconsistent. The test shows what the pile carries at exactly this spot, not what the ground model would suggest.
Differential settlement causes cracks, tilting and re-foundation. Tested piles are the cheapest part of structural stability.
