Instrumentation & Monitoring
Implementing state-of-the-art technology and instrumentation, we monitor essential data to address ground behavior, providing cost-effective solutions while ensuring safety and quality.
Slope and ground Movement
Monitoring and observing ground movement is crucial for pre-emptive measures in geotechnical construction projects. Early detection of excessive movement and potential instabilities allows for timely intervention, preventing catastrophic events such as landslides or slope failures. By developing criteria for permissible movement and implementing a continuous monitoring program, we can: Anticipating and understanding potential movement will guide the selection of instrumentation and installation methods to best monitor ground movement in critical zones. Our team of experts will support you in: Throughout all phases of your project.
Lateral Displacement control for deep excavation
During excavation activities, the existing ground stresses near the excavation zones will be affected. Adjacent structures, whether above or below ground, will be directly impacted by these changes. For deep excavations: Lateral support systems are normally incorporated in the planned construction to provide the required support and limit lateral displacement. Based on soil deposits and permissible loads around the excavated zone, our team will develop criteria for allowable lateral displacement. Additionally, monitoring lateral movement and the performance of geo-structural elements is essential to ensure compliance with design criteria. Selecting appropriate instrumentation is crucial for monitoring movement and stresses, ensuring the stability and safety of the excavation and its surroundings.
Ground Settlement monitoring
Integrity and performance of either planned or existing structures is directly affected by vertical ground displacement or settlement, typically caused by changes in ground stresses or groundwater conditions. These changes impact various sectors: Selecting suitable monitoring instrumentation depends on: All of which affect the long-term performance of your design project. Factors influencing changes in stresses and groundwater, which impact settlements, should also be considered during the design and instrumentation selection for the in-situ monitoring program. You can rely on our in-depth expertise to support your project with economical and sustainable solutions.
Monitoring of structural element behavior
Understanding and monitoring the behavior of critical structural elements is essential for ensuring structural integrity and safety. Factors affecting structural performance: Analyzing how loads are transferred within a structure and to external supporting elements is crucial for understanding these mechanisms and addressing potential issues. Our team will work closely with you to identify: The selection and installation of suitable instrumentation are crucial for obtaining valuable measurements. Our expertise covers: We support you through all project phases:
