Load Testing Water Bags are advanced engineering tools designed to simulate controlled, uniform loads for civil, industrial, and marine structures. Unlike traditional rigid weights, these water-filled bags provide flexible, evenly distributed pressure, reducing the risk of structural damage during testing.
Constructed with high-strength rubber reinforced with synthetic cord layers, they are abrasion-resistant, leak-proof, and capable of withstanding repeated high-pressure use.
Designed for rapid deployment and ease of transport, Load Testing Water Bags are ideal for remote or temporary sites. Their cylindrical and rectangular shapes conform to surfaces of varying irregularity while maintaining stable load distribution. The bags can be precisely filled and drained, allowing engineers to replicate specific load scenarios for bridges, roofs, platforms, and cranes.
In 2022, a Southeast Asian shipyard used 18 Load Testing Water Bags to perform load verification on a temporary offshore platform. The platform had to support heavy machinery exceeding 100 tons for installation operations.
The bags were positioned strategically under the platform and gradually filled with water. Load sensors confirmed uniform distribution, and the structure demonstrated no signs of deformation. After testing, the bags were drained, folded, and stored for future operations. This method eliminated the need for expensive steel weights and reduced setup time by 50%, proving the efficiency and safety of water bag load testing for marine and industrial applications.
