Strain sensing during load tests of large-diameter piles Museum of Modern Art
The project is one of the most prestigious investments built in the heart of Poland’s capital. Museum of Modern Art is a structure with unique design, built close to existing infrastructure. Foundations include deep large-diameter piles equipped with EpsilonRebars for safety reasons. Measurements were done during load tests and allowed for detailed analysis of piles structural performance and force transfer to the surrounding ground.

Benefits of using the DFOS monitoring system
Results of using the DFOS monitoring system
EpsilonRebars were embedded in large-diameter piles over their entire depth up to 35 m. Strain measurements made during load tests allowed for detailed analysis of force distribution from the pile to the surrounding ground, as well as early-age concrete cracks being closed due to the compression. An example plot of this unique data is presented.
