Services

Geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring

Supply, design, installation, maintenance and automation of piezometers, inclinometers, extensometers, seismographs and remote monitoring systems.

We deliver end-to-end solutions for the design, installation, monitoring and data management of geotechnical instrumentation in civil and mining works: from equipment supply to installation, maintenance and ongoing technical support, with proven standard programs or tailor-made proposals.

Service scope

Instruments

  • Hydraulic (Casagrande) and vibrating wire piezometers to measure pore pressure and groundwater levels, define safe fill placement rates, predict slope stability and assess drainage performance.
  • In-place inclinometers and portable manual or automated systems for lateral movements and deformations in soils, rock and retaining structures.
  • Vibrating wire rod, magnetic and tape extensometers for excavations, piles, dams, waste dumps, tunnels, slopes and buildings.
  • Settlement cells and vibrating wire pressure cells for embankments, waste dumps and earth and rockfill dams.
  • Accelerographs to measure ground acceleration during seismic events and the structural and geotechnical response.
  • Robotic total stations and settlement sensors.

Seismographs and vibration control

  • Setup and installation of seismographs to record the intensity and frequency of blast-induced vibrations and air overpressure in mines, quarries and construction sites.
  • Continuous monitoring with real-time data transmission for early detection.
  • Data analysis and reporting with safety recommendations for the project.

Automation and data management

  • Datalogger installation to record, store and manage sensor data.
  • Remote monitoring with wired and wireless solutions.
  • Integration of instruments with slope stability radar (SSR-SAR) and InSAR satellite monitoring for tailings dams, waste dumps, leach pads and open pits.
  • Design and supervision of instrumentation programs, maintenance and technical support.
