PIT-W and PIT-S enhance the analysis of pulse echo data obtained with the Pile Integrity Tester.

PIT-W Software

The PIT-W software is available in Standard and Professional versions.

Every Pile Integrity Tester (PIT) includes one license of PIT-W Standard. This software reprocesses PIT data, averages, filters and magnifies records, analyzes records in the time domain and outputs user customized tables, plots, and reports.

PIT-W Professional adds valuable features to the Standard version. It generates a likely Pile Profile, shows multiple piles in one single screen and has essential tools for interpreting data obtained with PIT-FV or PIT-VV: Wave Speed Calculation (with velocity data from 2 accelerometers) and Frequency Domain Analysis (with force from an instrumented hammer).

Why Frequency Domain Analysis?

The analysis in the time domain is relatively simple to interpret and assesses the location of major defects. The analysis in the Frequency Domain computes the relative mobility and dynamic stiffness of the pile. Coupled with the Multiple Column plots, it allows the comparison of records from various piles from the same location. Dynamic stiffness yields a relative assessment of pile strength and quality. The PIT-W Pile Profile Analysis generates a plot of pile impedance as a function of depth for piles with a clear toe.

PIT-S Software

PIT-S takes a user-input pile shape, soil layer properties and characteristics of the low strain hammer impact, including point of impact, and displays the velocity reflections versus time and versus pile length that a PIT test under such conditions would produce.

PIT-S is a simulation software that, in its most basic application, does not require data collection. However, It can greatly enhance analysis when used in conjunction with data obtained with the Pile Integrity Tester: The curves simulated by PIT-S may be superimposed over measured curves for a simple signal matching process and a simplified investigation of the cause of observed reflections.

The display of force and velocity curves or of the velocity curves at different locations along the pile (integrity testing of piles integral to a structure is accomplished by analyzing 2 velocity curves) simulate integrity tests performed with the PIT model FV. The software also shows acceleration and displacement data and includes a slow motion animated display of the wave transmission and reflections that are particularly educational.

Software Access

for desktop or laptop only

 

PIT-S

The PIT-S software lock license is not a shared license and only good for one user and on one computer at a time. How you activate the license is by a USERNAME and LICENSE NUMBER.

 

PIT-W Professional

The PIT-W Professional software lock license is not a shared license and only good for one user and on one computer at a time. How you activate the license is by emailing in your site code and we will reply with a site key.

  • To transfer license from the licensed computer open the software from the Help Menu and follow the screen message to deactivate license and send us the Deactivation Code to confirm. Then from the new computer you wish to have the license activated on, send us a new Site Code and we will reply with a new Site Key for the new computer
  • Please deactivate software license and send us deactivation code before you format your system

 

License Transfer & Reactivation Policy

We offer free license transfers for all single‑user software locks, as long as the original installation is properly deactivated. A valid deactivation code must be provided when moving the license to a new computer.

If a deactivation code cannot be generated due to computer failure, reformatting, or system malfunction, a reactivation fee will be required to issue a new activation.

This policy ensures the protection and proper management of all licensed software.
