Testing of constructions
The Institute was originally the only institution authorized to perform load testing of bridges in Slovakia or to authorize another entity to perform such testing. Static load testing of bridges has been performed since 1964 and dynamic testing of bridges since 1992. To measure the deflection and vibration, the Institute’s workers use measurement systems with automated data collection and online processing. These measurement systems are used by analogy for load testing of ceilings, steel structures, etc. Traditional tests are also load tests of piles, and since 1992 also the integrity testing of piles has been performed by the Institute.
