The PDA-DLT software add-on is specifically designed for quality assurance testing of drilled shafts and bored piles. The PDA-DLT software add-on allows for multiple configurations of force measurement. The PDA system acquires data from accelerometers and strain transducers attached to a pile or shaft so that High Strain Dynamic Tests (ASTM D4945) may be performed. For bored piles or drilled shafts, the tests require the impact of a suitable drop weight.

The PDA-DLT Software Add-On:

Efficiently addresses Bored Pile testing challenges
Collects data from Top-Force Transducer.
- Automatically calculates equivalent force in the pile from measured forces in the cell for CAPWAP analysis.
- User can toggle between forces in the pile and forces in the top-force transducer etc.
Transfer energy ratio is calculated by the program
User can input drop height
Tabular output for all blows

The PDA-DLT conforms to ASTM D4945.

Purchase of the PDA-DLT includes technical support.
