Load tests Kielce Olszewskiego

The project

GEO-Instruments Polska has designed and executed a comprehensive programme of load testing of deep foundations made in the technology of driven prefabricated piles with cross-section 400x400 mm.

The challenge

Verification of design assumptions for the performed foundation of the viaduct over the railroad line no. 8 within the extension of Olszewskiego street in Kielce.

The solution

We performed 6 static test loads and 6 dynamic test loads. Interpretation of the obtained results of the loads allowed us to perform an analysis of compliance with the ultimate limit state according to PN-83/B-02482, and thus confirm the correctness of the adopted design assumptions.
