Static Cone Penetrometers

The static cone penetration test is a valuable tool used to predetermine pile lengths and estimate carrying capacities in various strata. Originating from Holland, a country known for their expertise in constructing buildings on reclaimed land from the sea bed, this test is particularly helpful in assessing soft compressible strata and their connection to hard clays, sands or gravel. There are different capacities available, including 30KN, 100KN and 200KN, making it a versatile option for various projects. With its effectiveness in predicting pile behavior, this test is a crucial step in ensuring the stability and safety of structures built on varying types of ground.
