THERMAL INTEGRITY PROFILING – TIP

Evaluation of the entire cross-section and the entire length of the deep foundation element measuring heat generated by curing cement to assess the quality of drilled shafts/bored piles, augured cast in place (ACIP), continuous flight auger (CFA), or drilled displacement piles, slurry walls, barrettes, soil nails and jet grouted columns.  This test is conducted in conformance with ASTM D7949-14.
