Dynamic Probes
Dynamic Probes
Dynamic probing is an in-situ test used to measure soil resistance by driving a cone into the ground using a hammer. It follows the latest Eurocode 7 standards (BS EN 1997-2:2007).
Two test types are available:
-
DPH – Heavy Dynamic Probing
-
DPSH – Super Heavy Dynamic Probing
The system includes a 90° cone (sacrificial or retrievable), extension rods, a torque wrench, and a driving device.
Our 0.5m or 1m rods are made from durable heat-treated alloy steel, with 10cm depth markings and flush joints for accuracy and strength.
Dynamic probes can be operated with a probing rig or automatic trip hammer for efficient site testing.
