Pile integrity Testing IDS-1 Manual
APPLICATIONS
• Determining the length, integrity, average strength, and defects of piles
• Surveying structures foundation
• Examining concrete hydraulic structures
• Inspecting tunnels, sewers, underground storage tanks
• Measuring thickness of foundation slab and detecting cavities under them
• Examining condition and strength of concrete structure.
IDS-1, IDS-2 Pile Integrity Testing
This instrument ” IDS-1″ and IDS-2 can determine the length of reinforced concrete piles, Steel and Wooden piles up to sixty meters in length, such piles applicable to deep pile foundation buildings, Dams, Piers, Telecom Communication towers and Marine structures including jetty.
Engineers can also use IDS -1 and IDS-2 for surveying a structures’ foundation and examining concrete hydraulic structures, as well as inspecting underground tunnels, sewers, underground storage tanks.
The High frequency two‐channel seismic station IDS-1 and IDS-2 is designed for the inspection of metal and reinforced concrete piles to 60 m in length, foundation walls, foundations of road and airport runways, in‐ground walls, bridge piles, and other concrete and stone‐made utilities.

Pile length measuring method
The method is based on measuring the response time for the signal reflected from the other end of pile or from obstacles inside the pile that emerge due to its inhomogeneity. The lenght is calculated based on the known speed of primary wave for various types of piles and measured response time. The source of primary waves is a special hammer; the seismic pick up serves as a pick up of elastic vibration.
Software IMPACT (Better analysis than ordinary Pile software)
The software is used for automotive basic plates thickness, possible defects detection, survey the plate and soil engagement condition.
PILEMETER Software
Specialized PILEMETER software provides automated detection of the length of a pile or rate of the acoustic wave in the pile, and, more importantly, allows one to collect this necessary data easily and clearly. This Specialized software also helps to determine the thickness and defects of piles using the Impact Echo Principle.
It also..
Once the longitudinal wave velocity in the pile is defined, this software determines the length, integrity and localizing defects of piles.
