Subject: Pile lengths by Non-destructive means

  Would appreciate information on available non-destructive test methods (and likely accuracies) for deteremining insitu pile lengths.
This testing is required as part of an initial investigation for dispute resolution between client and contractor. The second option will most likely
involve actual excavation beside suspect piles. Availability of methods in Australia would be appreciated and I thank all those in advance for their assistance.

  Parrallel seismic testing could provide a solution to your problem. However its expensive, and really you need to consider the ground conditions. However it can be done, and succesfully.
