About George Piscsalko

Designer: Pile Integrity Tester, a two acceleration channel real time data acquisition system for pulse echo measurements. Co-designer: Pile Driving Analyzer, an eight channel (4 strain and 4 acceleration) real time data acquisition system for dynamic measurements on driven piles. Co-designer: Pile Installation Recorder for Augercast Piles, a real time data acquisition system to measure grout flow, auger position, auger torque, grout pressure, and auger rotations during the installation of augercast piles. These signals are able to transmit to a main collection unit via wires or wirelessly.Designer: Energy Saximeter, a data logging device to measure pile driving hammer blow count and hammer kinetic energy via wireless sensors mounted to the pile driving hammer.Designer: Pile Installation Recorder for Driven Piles, a real time data acquisition system to measure hammer blow count as a function of pile depth, hammer kinetic energy, angle of inclination for the pile, and chamber pressure for the hammer. All sensors acquire data independently and transmit the results wirelessly to a main collection unit.Specialties: Licensed, professional engineer in OhioDeep Foundations Institute, ACI
