Structural Analysis by Finite Element Method (FEM Analysis)
Structural Analysis by Finite Element Method (FEM Analysis) 1 2 3 Finite element analysis is one of our service. This is advance structural analysis method. The structural member will be divided to very tiny piece which is different behavier. We can be know where position is critical zone more accuracy than another method. Finite element analysis […]
Pile location detection
One very common problem is that the drawing or evidence of the floor pile layout or location is missing. As a result, a thorough floor capacity analysis cannot be done. Load carrying capacity also cannot be verified. When dealing with one of these cases, RE team conducted the Non-Destructive Pile Detection on the concrete floor of a factory in the Bangpa-In Industrial Estate.
Concrete Coring Test
Concrete Coring Test 1 2 3 4 5 6 The Concrete Coring Test is the most effective assessment of the compressive strength of concrete. The concrete sample at the site will be cored using a coring machine and then tested in the laboratory. The test yields high accuracy. However, it must be noted here that […]
The Pull Out Test and The Shear Load Test on Anchor Bolts
The Pull Out Test is one of the methods used to inspect an anchor’s load carrying capacity. This test determines the tensile strength capacity. The tested load will be applied in the parallel direction to the anchor using a hydraulic pump with a load measuring system. Displacement of the tested anchor is measured by a displacement transducer which shows real-time data. The Pull Out Test conducted by RE complies with the ASTM E488-10 standard.
Long term strain measurement in place
The RE team investigated the condition of spun piles. It was found that the piles displayed cracking along the length of the piles. The team, then, installed equipment to detect the rate of crack-opening in the piles and collected data on ambient vibration of the problematic pile foundations.
Measurement of floor vibration caused by machines operation
In one case undertaken by RE, it was found that machine vibrations during the operations caused strong vibrations to the floor underneath. Thus, accelerometers were used to capture real-time floor and machine vibrations for all axes.
