Geotechnical instrumentation monitors the response of structures and soils to earthquakes. This helps to improve our understanding of seismic behaviour and to develop more effective earthquake-resistant designs.
Overall, the purpose of geotechnical instrumentation is to provide valuable data and insights into the behaviour of soils, rocks, and structures, which can be used to improve design, construction, and safety in various applications.
Soil Eng provides comprehensive and efficient services across the full breadth of geotechnical engineering, including investigation, analysis, design, and reporting.
Geotechnical instrumentation is monitoring equipment, such as inclinometers, piezometers and settlement markers, installed to measure how soil, rock and structures behave over time under load, water pressure or movement.
It provides real, ongoing data to verify design assumptions, confirm ground and structures are performing safely, and give early warning of movement or pore-pressure changes, vital on slopes, retaining structures and sensitive sites.
Ground and slope movement, settlement, groundwater and pore-water pressure, and loads or deformation in structures can all be monitored, with the programme tailored to the risks on each project.
Yes. Soil Eng specifies, installs and monitors geotechnical instrumentation, interpreting the readings so you can act on them with confidence.
We value our client relationships and work diligently to achieve the best outcomes for projects and properties.
