While you are still on construction site, the data can be evaluated and further processed in the office. Or just simply add by yourself - even on site - directly via your smartphone the missing information to the protocol and send it as a PDF file to whom you want. In addition, you have direct access to operating instructions (video, PDF) and information about the Dynamic Plate Load Test byusing the Light Weight Deflectometer HMP LFG. ____________________________________ HMP Magdeburger Prüfgerätebau GmbH Bülstringer Straße 6 39126 Magdeburg GERMANY Tel.: +49 391 251 46 66 Fax: +49 391 251 46 68 E-Mail: info@hmp-online.de web: www.hmp-online.com Managing Director: Gunnar Hennings Commercial Register: Amtsgericht Stendal HRB 100254 VAT ID-No.: DE 139306293 Tax-No.: 102 107 00264
