What is a Pile Integrity Tester (PIT)?
A pile integrity tester (PIT) is a non-destructive testing tool used in low-strain pile testing to assess pile quality, length, and structural integrity. The PET system by Piletest is one of the most advanced and user-friendly PIT testing solutions, providing real-time data analysis and high-speed testing capabilities.
The PET is ideal for:
-
Ensuring pile quality and detecting potential defects
-
Verifying as-built pile length & continuity
-
Assessing deep foundation integrity quickly & accurately
-
Meeting global compliance standards for PIT testing
Whether you are conducting a single PIT test or assessing hundreds of piles per site, the PET pile integrity test equipment offers a cost-effective, efficient, and highly accurate solution for your foundation testing needs.
Befor you start, check if the dimensions of the pile to be tested are within the test methods' slenderness limitations. Use the calculator in the button below.

How Does a PIT Test Work?
The Pile Integrity Test (PIT) is a low strain dynamic test that determines pile continuity, length, and defects by analyzing stress wave reflections. The PET system employs the Pulse Echo Method (PEM), ensuring accurate and real-time pile testing results.
Step-by-Step Process for Conducting a PIT Test:
-
Attach the Digital Accelerometer – The PET’s high-sensitivity sensor is placed on the pile head with some putty.
-
Strike the Pile with a Handheld Hammer – A light hammer impact generates a stress wave that travels through the pile.
-
Analyze the Reflected Waveform (Reflectogram) – The PET system captures & interprets the wave reflections from the pile to determine pile length & integrity.
-
Generate an Instant PIT Test Report – Engineers can review data on-site with PET’s advanced software for immediate decision-making, easily editing it on MS WORD.
Understanding Reflectograms with Pilewave Simulator:
The PET’s Pilewave software allows engineers to simulate, analyze, and interpret reflectograms, making it easier to detect pile defects, discontinuities, and anomalies.
