    Badania ciągłości pali prefabrykowanych
    (Wydawnictwa AGH, 2009) Modl, Aurelia; Rybak, Jarosław
    This work addresses the possibility of the implementation of non-destructive testing (NDT) in the diagnostics of pre-cast concrete piles. At present, numerous techniques are available in order to test the piles from the point of view of both their load capacity and also their quality. The testing of the pile integrity and length by means of Low-strain methods has the advantage of being simple, cheap and quick. The only possible difficulty may occur during the analysis of the results, especially as far as the velocity of wave propagation, as well as the ambiguity of the signals received, is concerned. Undoubtedly, however, the possibility to control the conformity of an executed piling with its design is the main reason why the presented method should become commonly used.
