Instrumentation & Field Measurements: The Future

Apart from the cost-effective nature of instruments, it is also crucial to have sensors that allow the access of data in real or near real-time anywhere on the globe. The advancement of technology and human capability has introduced us to some of the finest equipment that is more precise, reliable, cost-effective, and tailored-made for every challenging field. 1. Sensors play a crucial role when it comes to monitoring. The era of digital sensors has changed it all. Furthermore, the digital sensors collect the calibration parameters inside the sensors and present the output directly in terms of suitable engineering units. To connect to the internet, you would need a cellular service provider’s data SIM card. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Monitoring Solution – Plot-13 Deira Waterfront Development. The Deira Waterfront Development is one of the most important development projects and involves construction of a number of new plazas, mixed-use buildings and green open spaces.

Monitoring Solution – Plot-13 Deira Waterfront Development

Phase 1 of the project included development of almost 30 plots along the waterfront, each with its own development plan and design. Plot-13 is one such plot, located in the northern portion of Dubai in the Deira District, that includes a maximum two level basement (approximately 10 m deep excavation). As the project involved heavy construction activities adjacent to the tunnels of the Dubai Metro Green Line and the Shindagha Road, the tunnels were monitored.

Type of Data Loggers and How do they work?

[Updated] Type of Data Loggers and How do they work? Civil Engineering is a complex and interesting field. To put it simply, data loggers are simply the devices that are interfaced with several other instruments or sensors to log data in real-time. Large construction sites or even civil engineering structures require continuous monitoring to maintain its health. As these sensors do their job, the Data loggers are responsible for collecting and recording data from the installed sensors for an assigned duration, at predefined intervals, without any physical/human intervention. Man-made Concrete Structures Monitoring. All man-made concrete structures, such as civil infrastructures and residential buildings are constantly affected and degraded throughout their service life by various kinds of factors, such as ageing, fatigue, corrosion, and even natural disasters.

Man-made Concrete Structures Monitoring

These factors collectively reduce the structures’ disaster resistance ability, and can sometimes lead to partial failure or even the complete collapse of the structures. The potential for such accidents is a direct threat to the safety of both lives and properties. With these rising concerns, structural health monitoring of concrete structures has become one of the top research focus areas in recent years.

Types Of Strain Gauges: Construction & Specifications. The EDS-30V shotcrete strain gauge can be considered as a miniature high resolution vibrating wire displacement sensor in a stainless steel housing.

Types Of Strain Gauges: Construction & Specifications

It is pre-tensioned at around the middle of its measurement range using a very thin aluminium tubing so that it can measure both tensile and compressive strains of up to 30,000 microstrains unit. Two short lengths of rebar are fixed, parallel to each other, at each end of the strain gage for gripping in shotcrete. The distance between the rebars is the gauge length of the strain gauge. The aluminium tubing is covered with a polyolefin sleeve to decouple it from the surrounding concrete so that the measured strain is the average strain in concrete lying between the two lengths of rebar. The sensor houses a permanent magnet and a plucking coil assembly. Al Mirani Fort Monitoring Instrumentation by Encardio-rite.

Fort Al Mirani is a fort in the harbour of the city of Old Muscat, Oman. On showing signs of decay and distress, it was restored to its original majesty as part of a concerted renovation program. The surrounding saline weather conditions and numerous rainwater discharge points had caused adverse weathering and erosion with time. The Sultanate commissioned Atkins International and later Constell Consultants India to prepare a report on protection of the fort and to suggest long term performance monitoring. Harry W. Nice Memorial Bridge – A Case Study. Bridges constitute a very important component of the transportation network. As they are a major investment for society and are at the core of public transport and usage, it is extremely crucial to keep an eye on their safety and maintenance. This is achieved through geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring, which is involved in the pre, post, and after-construction phases.

Safety in bridges is a bigger concern that other parts of the transport system since any damage or collapsing of the structure can lead to magnanimous devastation to life and property with severe consequences. Strategic Tunnel Enhancement Programme (STEP) STEP (Strategic Tunnel Enhancement Programme) constitutes one of the largest tunnel sewerage systems in the world. This huge gravity-driven hydraulic wastewater network tunnel was divided into 3 sections: Main Sewer, Link Sewer, and the Pumping Station.

In-place 3D inclinometer /settlement (IPIS) system. The length of the spacer tubing is what decides the distance between each sensor; the length of each segment where the tilt is monitored. Our Inclinometer sensor possesses a displacement range of 100mm which helps to measure the expected settlement/heave. It is labelled at three locations which are the two ends and the middle for ease in setting. A coarse adjustment of 5 mm / 50 mm / 75 mm and a fine adjustment of 50 mm (± 25 mm) is provided in the gage tube for the positioning of the settlement sensor over the ring magnets. Even the gage tube is put together in parts.

There are several advantages of the digital probes over the conventional analog probes. For this reason, when we have to employ several sensors, SDI-12 equipped 3D probes are the perfect choice as they aren’t restrictive when it comes to accomodating a larger number of individual signal cables inside the borehole. Bridge Structure Health Monitoring Projects By Encardio-rite. Model EAN-61MS in-place 3D Inclinometer System (IPIS) Encardio-rite model EAN-61MS in-place 3D inclinometer cum settlement (IPIS) system is used wherever lateral movement along with settlement/heave is to be monitored in a borewell or on a structure. It finds wide application in the measurement of lateral movement and settlement in soil, earthworks, slopes or structures like retaining/diaphragm walls, embankment, deep foundations or dams etc. It is also very useful in monitoring landslide areas.

IPIS is designed to provide significant quantitative data on the magnitude of lateral movement along with settlement or heave and its variations with time. It also provides the pattern of deformation, zones of potential danger and effectiveness of construction control measures undertaken. What Are The Different Types Of Piezometers?

Bogibeel Rail Cum Road Bridge Assam, India. What Are Tiltmeters And Where Are They Used? The EL tiltmeters contain an electrolytic tilt sensor housed in a compact, rugged, and weatherproof enclosure.

Encardio-rite’s Model EAN-31EL EL tilt sensor is designed for measuring very small tilts, of the order of half a degree, with a high resolution. It is used to monitor rotation and deflection of structures such as buildings, retaining walls etc. in a vertical plane. These are normally used as a stand-alone unit for measuring tilt. There are two ways in which the tilt sensor is used to measure the amount of tilt.

One of them is by directly attaching it to the structure using suitable mounting brackets or fixed to horizontal or vertical beams. Marina Bay Sands Hotel Geotechnical Instrumentation.
