Pile tip Load Cell
Reacts to the change in fluid pressure in each section and the sum of these gives the total load on the pile tip.
 |
Custom-manufactured to suit site specific requirements. Cells can be any shape to suit different pile types. They operate on principles similar to total earth pressure cells.
The cell is typically divided into between 1 and 4 independent sections, each connected to a pressure transducer.
Application:
Used for measurement of load at the tips of driven piles, cast-in-place piles and drilled shafts
