PRIMA100 LWD is the industry leading tool for assessing foundations layers such as CBM, lime stabilized
cray and crushed rock, and fully compliant with the UK highways agency design manual roads & bridges:
Dynamic plate test and other international guides.

Assessment of foundations during construction is quicker and easier with PRIMA100 LWD.

PRIMA100 LWD is considered the industry’s equipment of choice
and is widely used by testing organisations and laboratories
throughout the World.

PRIMA100 LWD is lightweight and can be operated and
transported around site by one member of staff. It has an
integrated load cell to measure the applied load pulse and a
geophone to directly measure the resultant deflection pulse.
