Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract This article presents the detection of defects in bored piles with cross-section 1.2÷1.5 m and length 1÷53 m. PIT and Cross-hole Sonic Logging (CSL) methods were used to detect defects in piles. These works were carried out in the city of Nur-Sultan on LRT construction site. Integrity inspections performed after installation are often the most reasonable alternative available to assess the pile quality. This paper discusses the similarities and differences, also advantages and disadvantages. Both Cross-hole Sonic logging and impact echo integrity testing indicated defects in several pile. Subsequent coring confirmed these defects. The results of the two test methods are presented and compared with each other.
