Ensure the quality of your deep foundation elements with Thermal Integrity Profiling (TIP). Our cutting-edge testing accelerates construction, detects defects, and provides real-time insights for reliable, high-performance results.














SACL’s TIP uses embedded Thermal Wire® cables and Thermal Acquisition Ports (TAPs) to capture the thermal prole of curing concrete foundations. By monitoring temperature variations along the full length of a drilled shaft or pile, TIP identies anomalies in concrete cover, shaft geometry, and reinforcement cage positioning, all without the need for embedded access tubes.
