Load & Pile Testing
Load testing of piles and foundations — vertical, lateral, pull-out, plate load and pile integrity testing with calibrated instrumentation.
Foundation Load TestingVerify Foundation Performance
Load testing proves that a foundation performs as designed — before the structure commits its full weight to it. RVCS conducts pile load tests, plate load tests, pull-out tests and pile integrity testing with calibrated equipment and disciplined supervision.
Each test is instrumented, witnessed and reported with load–settlement curves and interpretation against IS 2911 criteria, giving designers and authorities documented confidence in the foundation system.
