Testing methods to evaluate foundation quality without excavation or invasive procedures

Kozera, Inc. performs non-destructive integrity testing for deep foundations to assess uniformity, identify potential defects, and evaluate construction quality without disturbing installed elements. Using low-strain and advanced methods—including PIT (Pile Integrity Testing), CSL (Crosshole Sonic Logging), and TIP (Thermal Integrity Profiling)—we provide insight into the parts of your foundation system that aren’t visible but are critical to structural performance.
