Project Overview

Project Name: Shifeng No. 6 Bridge, Tiantai County

Project Type: Cast-in-Place Pile Foundation

Location: Tiantai County, Zhejiang Province, China

Testing Equipment: RSM-STD(C) Sediment Thickness Detector

 

Testing Purpose & Method
The inspection aimed to evaluate sediment thickness at the bottom of cast-in-place piles, which is critical for ensuring proper load transfer and long-term pile performance. The electrical resistivity method was applied using the RSM-STD(C), providing accurate detection of sediment thickness in pile boreholes.

 

Testing Scope

Sediment thickness testing of cast-in-place piles for the Shifeng No. 6 Bridge project

Verification of borehole cleaning quality before concrete placement

 

Testing Results

Findings: Borehole 4#4 recorded sediment thickness fully within design requirements.

Abnormalities: None detected; sediment levels met specifications.

Impact: The results confirmed that construction procedures ensured adequate pile base conditions, preventing risks to bearing capacity or structural stability.

 

Evaluation

Engineering Evaluation: Borehole cleaning quality was confirmed to meet design standards, ensuring the reliability of pile foundations.

Equipment Performance: The RSM-STD(C) produced clear, reliable results, with stable signal quality and accurate sediment thickness readings.

On-Site Records: Photos and videos documented the testing process, providing visual evidence of project quality control.
