Assessing the pile base capacity from a Static Load Test on model piles [PDF]
A static load test of a pile provides information about the pile bearing capacity. Nevertheless sometimes more precise information can be needed, e.g. what part of load applied to the pile is carried by its base and its shaft.

Dynamic mode-I delamination of composite laminates using a drop-weight tower and optical data-acquisition [PDF]
Impact events can hardly be called quasi-static. To test for relevant properties with quasi-static test methods thus seems to make little sense, especially when materials with a rate-sensitivity are the subject of testing.

Influence of the gripping fixture on the modified compact tension test results: evaluation of the experiments on cylindrical concrete speciments [PDF]
The modified compact tension test (MCT) might become in the future a stable test configuration for the evaluation of fracture-mechanics parameters or also for description of fatigue behavior of composites materials such as concrete.

Static Load Test on Instrumented Pile – Field Data and Numerical Simulations
Static load tests on foundation piles are generally carried out in order to determine load – the displacement characteristic of the pile head. For standard (basic) engineering practices this type of test usually provides enough information.

Use of the dynamic load test to obtain the pile capacity – the Brazilian experience
The dynamic load test is currently an important and usual tool for design, control, and quality assurance of deep foundations. The objective of this paper is to compare the expected geotechnical load capacity through empirical and semi-empirical ...

Sustainable slow maintained pile load test [PDF]
Slow maintained load test is widely used by contractors in Malaysia to ensure the driven pile could accommodate the design load of the structure. Slow maintained load test is a test to determine load-settlement curve and pile capacity for a period of ...
