1 PDA and DLT The Hague Office Waterpas AT The Hague The Netherlands Tel: Heemskerk Office De Trompet DB Heemskerk The Netherlands Tel: Tyler Office 1411 Cumberland Rd Tyler, TX U.S.A. Tel: Singapore Office 3 Joo Koon Crescent Singapore Tel: info@allnamics.eu Complete set of PDA/DLT equipment and tools in transport case.(29 cm x 45 cm x 55 cm, 15 kg) Allnamics has developed a state-of-the-art multi-purpose monitoring system, the PDR. A multidisciplinary design team created this product, which meets the pile testing requirements on the construction site in every respect. Options include continuous monitoring of strain and acceleration during pile driving (PDA) and single blow registration for Dynamic Load Testing (DLT) during restrike. Data collected for the latter can be exported for further analysis with AllWave-DLT signal matching software. Additionally load cell and accelerometer data can be recorded during Rapid Load Testing (e.g. Statnamic, Statrapid ). Various other monitoring options could be implemented upon request.

2 Features: WiFi or ethernet connection to a Windows PC laptop 4 channels (easy upgrade to 8 channel monitoring under development) Adjustable sample rate (up to 48 khz per channel) 24 bit conversion Internal Solid State recorder for signal backup 6 hrs operational battery life (16 hrs standby) Class IP67 housing Robust design with easy magnetic stowaway system for excess cable Fully compatible with intelligent combined transducers (USID) Integrated test box (to automatically check the transducers during mounting) Software program for monitoring, processing and reporting included

4 High Strain Dynamic Testing (or Dynamic Load Testing) can be a fast and costeffective alternative to Static Load Testing of both concrete and steel piles. During the test a load is applied to the pile by either an impact hammer or a suitable drop weight and the generated stress wave travels down to the pile toe and back up again to the top of the pile. The measured signals are then processed and analyzed to assess the pile capacity. Transducer check with status by WiFi. During pile driving these same signals can be recorded to monitor and analyze the performance of the hammer, the condition of the pile cushion and pile driving process in general. This socalled Pile Driving Analysis (or PDA) reduces the risk of damage to both the pile and the hammer and allows the contractor to drive the pile to the optimum depth. Allnamics was formed in 2010 as a new company by Peter Middendorp (one of the developers of the original TNO Pile Testing Systems: the TNO Pile Driving Analyzer) and other experts who have extensive experience in Geotechnical Engineering, Monitoring and Pile Testing all over the world, onshore and offshore.

5 Allnamics acts as an independent consultant for geotechnical engineering and piling works (incl. design and pile installation assistance/supervision), provides its clients with general advice in foundation diagnostics as well as training and assistance in using Allnamics pile testing hardware and software (incl. drive-ability prediction analysis and signal matching), and assists its clients in trouble shooting of complex project situations. Additionally, Allnamics organizes courses and seminars to introduce clients into the theory, practice and interpretation of foundation diagnostics using its experience from worldwide case histories since Combined acceleration strain transducers, multipurpose template, for transducer mounting and transport and transducers connectors with protection caps. Pile Testing services offered by Allnamics include the full range of non-destructive pile testing methods, both onshore and offshore including: Static Load Testing (SLT), Dynamic Load Testing (DLT), Rapid Load Testing (RLT), Statnamic Load Testing (STN), StatRapid Load Testing (STR), Pile Driving Analysis (PDA) for both impact and vibratory hammer, and Pile Integrity Testing (PIT).
