Mr. Ravikiran Vaidya is Principal Engineer and Founder of Geo Dynamics, a company involved in deep foundation testing. He has been instrumental in popularizing and pioneering various methods for deep foundation testing in India. It is to his credit that methods like high strain dynamic testing, integrity testing, sonic logging, etc., are now routinely used all over India to verify pile foundations and also form a part of all specifications of all major projects. He has recently worked on thermal integrity profiling for bored piles and indigenized the bidirectional load testing technology. He has written several technical papers on the subject, and his work has been cited by several authors in various articles and dissertations. He is also Guest Lecturer at academic and industry forums.
