Loadtest is dedicated to promoting and establishing the Osterberg CellĀ® (O-cellĀ®) method of load testing drilled shafts and piles as the premier method of static load testing. Loadtest also provides customers with services and equipment necessary to maintain the highest quality of load testing techniques and will also develop ancillary products and services to meet the needs of our customers.
No job is too big or too small to enjoy the advantages of the O-cell. It can be used to isolate portions of a drilled shaft or pile for testing, or can be used to test multiple levels within the same pile. Visit our Products & Services page for more information.
Numerous world records for load testing have been set using the O-cell, including the current world record for total load of 36,067 tons (320 MN) set in 2010 in St. Louis, Missouri. We have been involved in numerous world class projects and have completed thousands of successful load tests in over 60 countries on six continents. Please see our Project Profiles section for more detailed information on some of the numerous major projects that Loadtest has been involved with.
