A Vertical Pile Load Test (VPLT) is a field test conducted to determine the load-carrying capacity and settlement behavior of a pile under vertical loads. It is used to verify design assumptions, assess pile performance, and ensure foundation safety before construction proceeds. During the test, incremental loads are applied to the pile while settlement is carefully measured and recorded. The results help engineers evaluate the pile's ultimate capacity, load-settlement characteristics, and compliance with project specifications. Vertical pile load testing is widely used in building, bridge, industrial, and infrastructure projects to ensure reliable foundation performance.
