Ensuring Soundness, Continuity, and Safety of Deep Foundations

Pile Integrity Test (PIT), also known as the Low Strain Pile Integrity Test, is a non-destructive testing method used to evaluate the structural integrity and continuity of cast-in-situ or precast concrete piles. It is a vital quality control tool in foundation engineering, helping detect internal flaws and ensuring that piles perform. At Global Lab, we perform Pile Integrity Tests using advanced low-strain impact echo equipment as per ASTM D5882, IS 14893, and international geotechnical standards. Our testing services provide accurate, real-time results to assess the integrity, length, and soundness of piles — ensuring a safe, durable foundation system for your project.

Why PITMatters.

Detecting Defects and Anomalies

PIT helps identify internal defects such as cracks, voids, inclusions, or reductions in pile cross-section caused during casting or driving. These issues, if undetected, can significantly compromise load-bearing capacity and safety.

Quality Control and Assurance

As a fast, economical, and non-destructive method, PIT allows testing of a large number of piles quickly. It ensures that the installed piles meet design specifications, providing confidence in foundation quality before load testing or superstructure work begins.

Verifying Pile Continuity and Dimensions

PIT helps confirm that the pile is structurally continuous and has uniform cross-section throughout its depth. This verification ensures that the pile will transfer loads effectively into the soil without localised overstress or settlement.

Preventing Structural Failures

By identifying hidden defects early, PIT enables timely corrective actions before foundation loads are applied. This proactive approach helps avoid costly repairs, structural damage, and safety risks during later stages of construction or service life.
