STATNAMIC Load Test Report
SUMMARY
This report gives the correlation test results of one (1) no of Statnamic Load Test
conducted by Geonamics (S) Pte Ltd to static load test by Kentledge method conducted
by Geomonitor (S) Pte Ltd. The Statnamic Load test was performed on Pile No. ST-2
(i_ULT-6) on 05 January 2017 for Proposed 9-Storey Warehouse Development Involving
3-Storey Container Depot on Lot 00301L, 00302C, & 00303M MK 07 at Gul Circle,
Singapore. The Kentledge load test setup was subsequently deployed on the same pile on
04 April 2017 to 11 April 2017.
The aforesaid Bored pile is of 1200 mm diameter and length 35.05 m from ground level.
A maximum Statnamic load of 35,950 kN was applied to Pile No. ST-2 (i_ULT-6) on 05
January 2017 during the load test. The derived static resistance from the Unloading Point
Method was 35,340 kN. The gross displacement of the pile head during the test was
20.48 mm and the recovery from this displacement was 16.37 mm leaving behind 4.11
mm of permanent settlement. Based on the test results, we can conclude that the Pile No.
ST-2 (i_ULT-6) using UPM has a capacity of 35,340 kN.
The comparison of load-displacement results by Statnamic load test and Kentledge load
test are shown below:
From the above table, the settlement at 1.0xWL, 1.5xWL, 2.0xWL, and 3.0xWL by
Statnamic test is 5.63 mm, 8.66 mm, 11.54 mm, and 18.58 mm respectively, compares
well with 4.50 mm, 7.75 mm, 10.29 mm and 18.62 mm obtained from Static test. Please
refer to Figure 6.1 for more details of correlation.
The load-settlement results from Statnamic were within expectation and showed a very
good correlation to the Static test results hence no additional correlation factor is required
for the Statnamic test results on subsequent piles.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
On 05 January 2017, Geonamics (S) Pte Ltd performed Statnamic Load Test on the
Bored pile, Pile No. ST-2 (i_ULT-6) for Proposed 9-Storey Warehouse Development
Involving 3-Storey Container Depot on Lot 00301L, 00302C, & 00303M MK 07 at
Gul Circle, Singapore. The test was performed at the request of Messrs Ryobi Kiso (S)
Pte Ltd as a correlation test to static load test by Kentledge method on the same pile.
The Statnamic load testing method was developed in 1988 to meet the construction
industry's need for an accurate and cost-effective method of determining the load bearing
capacity of deep foundation elements. The technology was developed jointly by
Berminghammer Corporation of Canada (now Berminghammer Foundation Equipment)
and TNO Building and Construction Research of the Netherlands.
For the load test conducted on 05 January 2017, a Statnamic device was used to apply a
compressive load. A diagram of the device is shown in Figure 2.1. This device was
manufactured in 1995, and is the property of Geonamics (S) Pte Ltd.
The applied compressive load was measured using a Kelk load cell (serial ST95-C4027-
1-13). The load cell calibration factor that was used was 0.00004865 mV/V/kN. To
measure displacement, a portable laser source and a centrally mounted laser sensor (serial
#ST95-SL76-014) were used calibration factor 8.253 mm/V. Acceleration was monitored
using a solenoid low g accelerometer (serial # 071900) with calibration factor of 0.7410
mV/g. The data from these two components was collected in real-time using a TNO
FPDS-4® System (Foundation Pile Diagnostic System), consisting of a 486 processor
and a Statnamic signal conditioning unit. Digitization was performed at 5000 hertz per
channel. For these tests the computer was powered by a 12 V battery and the laser was
powered by a portable generator. An equipment schematic is shown in Figure 2.2.

The Statnamic load test was performed on Pile No. ST-2 (i_ULT-6), a 1200 mm and
35.05 m long bored pile from ground level. The original 8 metres by 8 metres formation
surrounding the pile was back filled to the level of the pile top level. The pile top was
levelled using a high strength epoxy grout product and prepared for the load test.
The setup procedure that was followed for the Statnamic device is shown in Appendix A.
The steel platform was constructed to support the device during the test.
Geonamics (S) Pte Ltd was informed by Ryobi Kiso (S) Pte Ltd that the test load would
be 34,500 kN. In anticipation of soil rate effects, a target Statnamic peak load of 35,000
kN was selected for this test. This load was to be attained by using 27.60 kg of
Statnamic fuel (approximately 6900 grain), with a reaction mass of 177,700 kg of
Statnamic weights.
The peak Statnamic load achieved was 35,950 kN and the static resistance by Unloading
Point Method was 35,340 kN. The maximum pile head displacement was 20.48 mm and
the recorded permanent settlement was 4.11 mm after a recovery of 16.37 mm from the
maximum displacement recorded. The maximum compression on the pile head was
31,783.10 kPa.
This pile moved at a maximum velocity of 0.52 m/s and recovered with a comparable
upward velocity. The maximum acceleration recorded was 19.81 m/s2 while the
maximum deceleration recorded was 31.70 m/s2.
The established procedure for the evaluation of Statnamic pile load-deflection response is
based on a simplified pile and soil model that is subjected to a rigid body translation
during the loading and unloading stages. Stress wave propagation within the pile is
minimised. The pile is treated as a rigid mass with elastic properties. The soil is
modelled as a spring and dashpot system in parallel as shown in Fig.2. The spring
represents the static soil resistance, while the dashpot represents the damping of the soil.
Physical Model
F
In a STATNAMIC LOAD TEST:
F = Applied force from the Statnamic device
(measured by a load cell)
m = Pile mass (easy to calculate)
u c = pile/soil damping (UNKNOWN)
m k = pile and soil stiffness (the term we need to find)
u, v, a = measured by an optical sensor and/or
accelerometer
k c
Figure 2
where Fstn(t) is the Statnamic applied load, Fu(t) is the term accounting for the static soil
resistance, Fv(t) is the term accounting for the effect of damping, and Fa(t) accounting for
the effect of inertia during the loading/unloading stage.
Fu(t) = K u(t)
Fv(t) = C v(t) (2)
Fa(t) = M a(t)
where u(t) is the pile top displacement and v(t) is the velocity at the pile top, a(t) is the
acceleration at the pile top, M is the mass of pile, K is the total spring stiffness, and C is
the damping component of the pile-soil system.
In a pile load test, u(t), v(t) and a(t) are measured together with Fstn(t) at any time t. The
mass M of the pile can easily be calculated. The value of K and C are to be determined,
and thus the components of Fu(t) and Fv(t) can then be obtained.
This is a modification of the Equilibrium Point method. This method assumes that
damping is linear, i.e. the damping coefficient C is constant through out the test.
The point of maximum displacement on the Fsoil versus u curve is called the ‘‘Unloading
Point’’, which corresponds to the point when the velocity is zero (v = 0). Since this zero
velocity point is unique, it also corresponds to the point of maximum displacement on the
Fstn versus u curve.
At this unloading point, the damping force Fv (tu) is equal to zero as the velocity is zero,
where tu is the time at the Unloading point. Thus, at the Unloading Point
This value of Fu(tu) corresponding to the Unloading Point is taken to the maximum static
soil resistance, Fu(up) obtained in the Statnamic test
where Fsoil(max) is the maximum value of Fsoil determined from the Fsoil versus u curve, and
v is the pile velocity at Fsoil(max).
The complete static load-deflection curve can then be obtained by using this value of C
and calculating the static load Fu(t) as follows:
Base on the results of the test, we can deduce that the Pile No. ST-2 (i_ULT-6) at least
has a capacity of 35,340 kN and the corresponding settlement is 20.48 mm where the
permanent settlement recorded was 4.11 mm.
Pile No. ST-2 (i_ULT-6) has been previously tested with the Statnamic Load Test system
on 05 January 2017. Subsequently, the Kentledge load test (Appendix F) was deployed
on 04 to 11 April 2017 to test the same pile after the completion of Statnamic Load Test.
From the above table, the settlement from Statnamic test in Column C compares well
with the settlements obtained from Static test in Column F.
The load displacements from the Statnamic load test (UPM) were plotted together with
the cycles from Kentledge load test as shown in Figure 6.1.
The load-settlement results from Statnamic were within expectation and showed a very
good correlation to the Static test results hence no additional correlation factor is required
for the Statnamic test results on subsequent piles.

Statnamic Test (Cycle 1) Static Test (Cycle 1-3)
*Statnamic load test was conducted three months prior to the Static load test; it appeared that the pile was still
behaving elastically under the load applied during the Statnamic and Static load tests and the effects from pre-loading
is likely to be insignificant hence we ignored the residual settlement after the Statnamic test in the comparison. The
load-settlement results from Statnamic and Static load test also compares well.

I. INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of one (1) no. of instrumented pile load test
conducted by Geomonitor (S) Pte Ltd on 04th to 11th April 2017. The load test was
performed on Pile No. i_ULT-6 (ST-2) at JTC Gul Circle, Benoi Road site. Three
loading cycles were applied for the testing of the pile up to 300% Working Load.
A summary of Soil profile based on the soil investigation (BH-10) and Bored Pile
Record is shown below:
1.05m to 6.05m Loose silty sand and soft silt to firm peat
Page 4
GEOMONITOR (S) PTE LTD
One pile have been tested, the specifications of which are presented in the table
below.
IV. INSTRUMENTATION
Instrumented test piles are used to measure the transfer of load along the length of
the pile. The strain gauge sensors work on the principle that a tensioned wire
housed within the sensor when electronically plucked will change the frequency of its
response with a change in length. The output frequencies were monitored using
independent data loggers which automatically measure and record the required
data. In this method, load transfer characteristics may be established, and from
these load transfer curves, the unit skin friction and unit end bearing may be
calculated.
The test pile was instrumented with 44 numbers sister bar strain gauges located at
11 different levels. The locations of gauges were presented in Figure 1. The strain
gauges are pre-installed onto reinforcement steel cage prior the pile being casted.
Page 5
GEOMONITOR (S) PTE LTD
Forces or load applied to the re-bar during testing give an electrical output that is
directly proportional to the micro strain of the bored pile.
The settlement of the pile was measured by a levelling instrument reading two scale
rulers installed onto the pile head. Another two scale rulers were installed outside
the Kentledge influence zone to be used as datum. As the pile settles with increased
load, the scale readings were taken from the survey instrument, since the line of
collimation remains unchanged, pile settlement is calculated by change in the
reading
Dial gauges were installed to measure the total settlement at the top of the pile
under load. The accuracy of the dial gauges is +/-0.01mm.
The loading test schedule was carried between 04 April 2017 and 11 April 2017.
Three loading cycles were applied for the testing of the pile. The pile was loaded in
increments of 25% and 50% of the working load up to 100%, 200% and 300%WL
and held for a specific time, in three loading cycles. The pile was then fully unloaded
upon the completion of the test. The applied load against time was plotted as shown
in Figure 2.

GEOMONITOR (S) PTE LTD
The maximum and residual settlement measured at pile head are summarized in the
table below.
Scale Ruler
Dial Gauge
Load-Settlement curves on monitored scale ruler and dial gauges are shown in
Figure 3 and Figure 4 respectively.
Page 7
GEOMONITOR (S) PTE LTD
The load transfer curves were computed based on the measured changes in strain
gauge readings and estimated pile properties (cross-sectional areas, concrete
density and modulus of elasticity). Computation made is based on the as-built details
known during the strain gauges installation and construction record. Load
transferred (P) at each level is calculated as follows:
P = Δ(RWSG) * Ec * Ac
Where:
Δ(RWSG) = Change in strain gauge readings
Ec = Young’s modulus of elasticity of pile
Ac = Pile cross-sectional area
The difference between the loads at any two levels represents the shaft load carried
by the portion of pile between the two levels. The load transfer curves obtained are
presented in Figure 5.
Average unit skin friction between any two sections of the pile is calculated by the
change in loads divided by the perimeter area between the two sections. The
mobilised unit skin friction at different soil levels are shown in Figure 6.
The estimated mobilised average unit skin friction results are tabulated as below:

From the load transfer curve, at the maximum applied load of 34,500 kN, the
mobilised end bearing is 3,683 kN and the mobilised unit end bearing is 3,257
kN/m2. Total shaft friction, end bearing and total applied load for three cycles were
plotted in Figure 8.

VIII. CONCLUSION
1. Pile Load Test was conducted on one (1) no. of 1200 mm dia. Bored Pile,
i_ULT-6 (ST-2) between 04th April 2017 and 11th April 2017.
2. It shows settlement of 7.50 mm, 10.50 mm, and 18.75 mm (scale ruler) at 1.5
times working load, 2.0 times working load, and 3.0 times working load
respectively. Upon unloading to zero, the pile shows residual settlement of
1.00 mm, which represents 94.7% recovery.
3. It shows settlement of 7.99 mm, 10.08 mm, and 18.49 mm (dial gauge) at 1.5
times working load, 2.0 times working load, and 3.0 times working load
respectively. Upon unloading to zero, the pile shows residual settlement of
0.95 mm, which represents 94.9% recovery.
4. From the instrumented pile load test results, the mobilised averaged unit skin
friction ranged from 29 kN/m2 to 538 kN/m2.

SAC SINGLAS INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION SCHEME
The SAC works closely with other accreditation bodies to establish and maintain the Mutual
Recognition Arrangements (MRAs), which help to facilitate regional and international trade for
Singapore. Based on the results of intensive multi-national peer evaluation of its signatories,
MRAs are important in building confidence for the competence and capabilities of an
international network of accredited conformity assessment bodies. This is why the SAC’s
signatory status in the MRAs is a global passport for enterprises in Singapore, without any need
for re-testing, re-inspection and re-certification.
Countries that are signatories of the MRAs recognise that the conformity assessment bodies
accredited by their partners operate in an equivalent way, and that they deliver equivalent
accreditations, providing the same level of competence and confidence. Therefore, test or
inspection reports or certificates issued by the SAC-accredited body are recognised by the MRA
partners as equivalent to those issued by their own accredited bodies.
SAC’s MRA partners include various international organisations, such as ILAC (International
Laboratory Accreditation Co-operation), IAF (International Accreditation Forum), APLAC (Asia
Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation) and PAC (Pacific Accreditation Cooperation).

Skim Akreditasi Makmal Malaysia (SAMM)
Laboratory accreditation based on ISO/IEC 17025 (formerly ISO/IEC Guide 25) was first introduced in Malaysia on 1 July 1987. This was followed by the introduction
in 15 August 1990 of a national unified laboratory accreditation scheme, known as Skim Akreditasi Makmal Malaysia (SAMM). The SAMM scheme was initially
administered by SAMM National Council that directly come under the authority of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation.
Following the establishment of the Department of Standards Malaysia (Standards Malaysia) on 28 August 1996 under the Standards of Malaysia Act, 1996, all
accreditation activities of the former Malaysia Accreditation Council were transferred to and come directly under the responsibility of Standards Malaysia. The
laboratory accreditation scheme, however, retains its original name "Skim Akreditasi Makmal Malaysia (SAMM).
The primary objective of SAMM is to provide a credible accreditation service to testing and calibration laboratories including medical testing laboratories such that
ultimately SAMM endorsed test reports and calibration certificates are accepted internationally. The accepted mechanism for recognition is by means of the Mutual
Recognition Arrangements framework of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation
(APLAC).
Scope of Activities
SAMM is unified national laboratory accreditation scheme and is multidisciplinary in its scope of accreditation activities. It covers both calibration and testing
including medical testing.
Reference to SAMM Accreditation
Accredited laboratories may use Accreditation Symbol and combined ILAC MRA Mark or make reference to SAMM accreditation.
Operations
Standards Malaysia is staffed by full time technical officers and supporting staff to carry out daily operations. It is operated in accordance with MS ISO/IEC 17011.
Accreditation Criteria
General criteria as published in MS ISO/IEC 17025 / MS ISO 15189, SAMM Policies (SP), Specific Criteria (SC) and Specific Technical Requirements (STR) are used
in assessments and accreditation process.
Policy on Cross Frontier Accreditation
It is the policy of Standards Malaysia not to accept any CAB application from abroad. This policy is consistent with the Act 549, Standards of Malaysia Act 1996,
clause 10 (2)(h).
Test/Calibration Methods
All existing standard methods from both national and international standard bodies as well as reputable technical organisation are acceptable. For nonstandard/in
house method are also acceptable provide that they are validated and documented.
Accreditation Process
Figure 1 : Accreditation Processes
Accreditation Certificate
Valid for three (3) years and renewable subject to terms and conditions of the SAMM scheme.
Surveillance and Reassessment
The first surveillance is scheduled nine (9) months from the date of award/renewal of accreditation and 2nd surveillance is scheduled twelth (12) months from the
date of 1st surveillance. Reassessment is scheduled three (3) months before the expiry date of accreditation.
Laboratory Assessors
Assessors are drawn from technical agencies, such as MRB, MPOB, Chemistry Department, Ministry of Health, universities and government laboratories. Other
competent individuals are also employed as parttime assessors. Assessors are trained by competent training organizations. The criteria for the acceptability of
laboratory assessors, are prescribed in SAMM documentations.
Proficiency Testing
Accredited laboratories are required to participate in available interlaboratory comparison programmes or other forms of comparison testing such as the proficiency
testing programmes by APLAC (Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation).
Appeals Procedure
Appeals procedure which maintained the independence, impartiality in the process of appeal, has been established for the handling and resolution of any appeal that
may arise from the accreditation process.
