SIMBAT (Simulation Battage Tester)

Model Number

01-006-2005-01

The SIMBAT tests are research of soil's elastic reaction, joint-film reaction, destructive reaction, and destructive adhesion reaction, that is, soil parameter research, and were developed to predict the change from dynamic reaction to static reaction through the test, comparing static and dynamic loading capacity with the change of various soils in many model piles, actually.

SIMBAT is newest method ended the error range of of USA's ASTM D4945 (American Standard Test Method)
The method is widely used in the worldwide including USA and Europe.
This method offers considerable advantages in term of speed and cost.
SIMBAT method is perfect to obtain the pile carrying capacity and very useful method can be used widely.

The method for using Dr. Smith's wave equation also was starting to come out problems, this formula, namely, the method used by substituting drop hammering formula for bearing capacity is not difficult in application of the simple PC, PHC pile, etc., but it has big problems as the possibility of the trust on large diameter cast-in-place pile of the big unit square measure developed these days and foundation body including various soil.
