Thermal Integrity Profiler (TIP)
The Thermal Integrity Profiler (TIP) uses the heat generated by curing cement to assess the quality of drilled shafts and of bored, augered cast in place, continuous flight auger or drilled displacement piles. It may also be used for quality control and shape evaluation of jet grouting, slurry walls and diaphragm walls. TIP evaluates the entire cross-section and the entire length of the foundation by the Thermal Testing Method. Results are availabe shortly after shaft istallation is concluded.

Thermal Integrity Profiler and Probe System
The average temperature within a concrete shaft is dependent on its diameter, on the concrete mix design and on the time of measurement relative to concrete casting. Measured temperatures at the reinforcement cage vary with the distance to the center of the shaft and with the concrete cover. |

Thermal Wire attached to rebar cage (shown adjacent to access to access tubes.)
TIP is availabe in two models: with Probes or with Thermal Wire Brand cables.
The TIP Probe Model includes a thermal probe (with 4 orthogonal temperature sensors) that is inserted inot access tubes for data collection, and a Thermal Acquisition Port that transfers collected data to the TIP mian unit. Shafts must be built with access tubes to be tested with this system.
The TIP THERMAL WIRE Model includes a starter set of THERMAL WIRE cable (copper cables fitted with uniformly spaced temperature sensors), and Thermal Acquisition Ports that transfer collected data to the TIP main unit. The cables are cast into the shaft (often tied to the rebar cage). An additional short THERMAL WIRE cable may be installed parallel to one of the main cables to help, refine the estimate of the concrete cover.

Pile testing is very important in Hong Kong, apart from the traditional testing method, TIP is a testing method by uses the heat generated by curing cement to assess the quality of drilled shafts and of bored, augered cast in place, continuous flight auger or drilled displacement piles. If you are interested to know more, please feel free to contact me at ryanyip@epc.com.hk . Thanks!
