Features: Testing and quality inspection assessment of pile foundation engineering are important tasks. This manual compiles and summarizes various methods related to pile foundation engineering testing in recent years. The manual includes the following content: Introduction, quality detection of cast-in-place hole, static load test of pile foundation, high and low strain dynamic test of pile foundation, Statnamic test for pile foundation bearing capacity, ultrasonic detection method for cast-in-place piles, strength testing and core drilling method for cast-in-place piles, cement soil mixing pile testing, and crushed stone pile testing. The manual provides detailed descriptions of the principles, equipment, testing methods, result processing, and analysis for each method, along with engineering application examples. In addition to introducing traditional and current testing methods, the manual also covers many new technologies and equipment in current pile foundation testing, such as self-balancing test method for pile bearing capacity, CT scanning imaging technology for cast-in-place piles, Statnamic technology, and new types of testing equipment. This book is a highly practical and comprehensive reference tool, serving as a practical manual for professionals engaged in pile foundation engineering design, construction, supervision, and testing. It can also be used as a textbook for elective courses in civil engineering at universities and as training material for pile foundation testing personnel.
