[English | 简体] Pile Loading Test ( Kentledge )

 Kentledge testing invloves the use of dead weights as a reaction system.

For bored, cast-in-situ piles where anchor piles cannot be installed, the use of a kentledge reaction system can be an appropriate testing solution.

Also where insufficient friction capacity may be available to allow the use of tension piles, the kentledge system is commonly used.
