Structural and Geotechnical Monitoring

A comprehensive short, medium or long term monitoring system may be set up using instrumentation and/or optical sensors which may be deployed, appropriate to the particular project, to measure and record a range of parameters. Some applications are for the monitoring of adjacent structures/buildings or tunnels resulting from changes of stresses imposed directly or through the ground.

Concern for the effect foundation works can have on adjacent structures is becoming a major issue in built up areas and city centres, particularly as deeper basements are now being constructed.

In-place inclinometer strings deployed to monitor the party walls during excavation or in-situ electrolevels, together with electronically controlled optical measurements can allow assessment of any disturbances.

Modern recording systems and display techniques are employed to give real-time representation of the results together with preset alarm/warning levels where appropriate. Using GSM modem connections, the data can be retrieved from a remote station to verify/assess any variations.

We can also provide load, movement, strain, noise and vibration monitoring equipment for short or long term applications.
