Static and Dynamic Load Testing
WDP has an extensive array of equipment which can be used to evaluate structures via static and dynamic load testing. These type of tests involve the installation of sensors to monitor the deformation response of a structure as load is applied. WDP's load testing equipment allows for the effects of both stationary and transient loads to be monitored. The types of responses that can be measured include accelerations, displacements, loads, rotations and strains. WDP's high speed data acquisition system allows for testing to be performed at sampling rates of up to 100,000 samples per second. All testing functions are controlled by a notebook computer that can be remotely installed for long term testing applications. 
 
WDP's equipment used in Load Testing includes:
  • 16 Channel High Speed Data Acquisition System 
  • Strain gages for concrete and steel 
  • Accelerometers 
  • Displacement Transducers 
  • Vibrating Wire Strain Gage 
  • Load Cells
