Statnamic load test
open-in-new
<p>The Statnamic load test is a type of test for assessing the load-carrying capacity of <a href="/facts/Deep_foundations/nKuDq0EN">deep foundations</a> which is faster and less expensive than the static load test. The Statnamic test was conceived in 1985, with the first prototype tests carried out in 1988 through collaboration between Berminghammer Foundation Equipment of Canada and <a href="/facts/Netherlands_Organisation_for_Applied_Scientific_Research/56ntp1KK">TNO</a> Building Research of the Netherlands. Guidance on rapid load pile testing can be found in: Methods for Axial Compressive Force Pulse (Rapid) Testing of Deep Foundations. Sanken D7383 - 08 Standard Test. </p>
