Features and Benefits
The Aggregate Pier Measurement System™ system delivers a wide range of customer benefits that increase Design Team confidence, reduce Owner/Developer foundation costs, improve structural support and promote construction efficiency and productivity.

Improves Design Team Satisfaction
- Electronic documentation of subgrade structural support construction.
- This documentation provides visualization of subgrade construction results.
Reduces Owner/Developer Costs
- Selective excavation rather than mass excavation or deep foundation can be used to support the structure.
- Expedited construction schedule since aggregate pier construction is typically conducted more quickly than other foundation support processes.
- Fewer weather construction delays since aggregate pier construction can be conducted during inclement weather.
Enhanced Productivity.
- Identifies and alerts operator to areas needing additional compaction during the construction process, eliminating rework and lost time.
- Real-time testing eliminates uncertainty and hesitation during construction.
Improves Employee Satisfaction and Retention.
- QA/QC personnel have consistent, full time monitoring equipment assisting them monitor the construction progress.
- Empowers the operator and improves operator confidence by delivering real-time compaction information to the cab.
Worksite Safety.
- Minimizes the need for full time QA/QC inspection at the hole.

Improved Structural Support
- Compaction effort designed for the entire soil profile.
- Controlled compaction for every lift.
- Differential settlement control through uniformly compacted subgrade support across entire structure.
Quality Control / Quality Assurance.
- Documents work completed.
- Provides in-process control with the ability to monitor progress daily.
- Provides electronic data for analysis.
- Summarizes lift by lift progress for each pier, and across an entire job site
- Creates historical record of job site data to correlate with long term results
