project description

In 2014, Arcos performed a static loading test with expansive cells on a drilled shaft pile and it reached up to 40170 kN of applied load. It was a 1400-mm diameter, 36 m long pile and the specificity of this assay was to use a set of 6 expansive cells to achieve the expected load.
