Civil Engineering / ALL-IN-ONE
ALL-IN-ONE: A single acquisition unit that, by purchasing different specific and modular “Kits”, enables the execution of sonic and ultrasonic tests for on-site and laboratory characterization of materials such as concrete, masonry, and natural stone, as well as cross-hole tests, PIT (Pile Integrity Test) on foundation piles and diaphragms, and tension force evaluation on chains and tie rods (SolTiRo).
ALL IN ONE
CONTACT KIT / MCHA KIT / PIT KIT / SolTiRo
The All-in-One system is a robust and reliable device equipped with various piezoelectric sensors and dedicated probes.
It features a multichannel A/D board with selectable sampling frequencies ranging from 10 kHz to 6.25 MHz (up to 12.5 MHz single-channel).
All acquired signals are displayed, processed, and saved directly on the pre-installed software on the tablet.
Connection between the All-in-One unit and the tablet is via WiFi.

APPLICATIONS
– Characterization of concrete, masonry, and natural stones both on-site and in the lab
– Integrity assessment of foundation piles and diaphragms using Cross Hole technique
– Integrity assessment of foundation piles using PIT technique
– Tension force evaluation in structural chains and tie rods (SolTiRo)
KIT SolTiRo (NEW)
The SolTiRo KIT enables non-destructive measurement of the tensile force in structural chains, especially useful in historic buildings. The system is based on the analysis of vibrations generated by an impulse, allowing the identification of natural frequencies and calculation of the acting tension.
The SolTiRo software processes data based on the geometric and mechanical parameters of the element and its boundary conditions, providing a safe and accurate analysis of the tensile state.
The kit includes acquisition instruments, accessories, and a user guide with safety measures.
