Abstract
A testing system for load test measuring a shaft resistance and a base resistance having first and second operating units with the first operating unit having a bottom loading plate, a base bearing plate and base mobilizer bars operably joined thereto; the second operating unit having a top loading plate, a shaft bearing plate and shaft mobilizer bars operably joining them together wherein the first and second operating units can move relative to one another; the system having a loading sources producing a test load between the top and bottom loading plates to move them apart wherein the shaft bearing plate that is positioned below a foundation element produces an upward compressive force test load on the foundation element to test shaft resistance and the base bearing plate that is positioned between the shaft bearing plate and the bottom surface of the foundation opening produces a downward compressive force test load on the bottom surface to test base resistance.
