Field Testing Expo Day

Dec 17, 2020 | Insitutek

It was great to be a part of the Australian Geomechanics Society (Official Page) Queensland Branch’s Field Testing Expo Day; highlighting the value of site investigation in civil engineering projects and being surrounded by the latest innovations and equipment available for field testing.

Spending the day with colleagues and friends in the industry on the banks of the Brisbane River followed by the annual AGM dinner was a great way to finish 2020.

We have been very happy with the support from Insitutek. They are knowledgeable and have been super responsive and flexible to our needs.

I felt the training was very thorough. If anyone doesn’t know how to use a PANDA after that session, they shouldn’t be using one at all.

After scouring the market, we settled on the PANDA DCP test equipment as it offered the technical capability and, moreover, the flexibility required to work in the restricted environment our project presented; overhead clearance typically at 1500mm but as low as 1200mm.  We had a unique problem that required a unique solution and that’s precisely what we found through the team at Insitutek and the PANDA equipment.  The ease of assembly, intuitive operability and compact nature of the equipment, made light of the numerous soundings we required across a widely dispersed area.

We find clients are often looking for ways to improve geotechnical testing outcomes and do it more efficiently at the same time. This drives their buying decision making. Australian Soil and Concrete Testing (ASCT) was a case in point when they were searching for Plate Load Test equipment for their upcoming Collector Wind Farm project. Some of the things that motivated them include: […]
