MEXID Miniaturized MPBX
Reference products codes: D2MX, D221BM MEXID extensometers, are miniaturized multi-point rod extensometers, used to monitor displacements of measuring points deeply positioned in grounds or rocks, with reference to the instrument head. The main strength of MEXID is the small drilling diameter: only 50mm (75mm first meter only). MEXID Miniature Multipoint Extensometer is furnished completely pre-assembled, […]
MPBX – Multipoint Borehole Extensometers
Reference products codes: D222, D221BM, DTE Multi-point rod extensometers are installed in borehole to monitor displacements at various depths using rods of different material and lengths. A pre-set length of measuring rod is inserted into a nylon tube to avoid soil friction and its tip is fixed to a steel groutable anchor. Preassembled fibre glass […]
Urban Tunnelling: Hakata station of the Fukuoka city subway – Japan
For the tunnel excavation of the Hakata station of the Fukuoka city subway in Japan partial excavation was carried out. A road with heavy traffic and different structures , as subground car park, gas pipelines, important sewers, are situated above the tunnel construction. Taking into account constraints as shallow overburden and unconsolidated ground above the […]
DEX-S 3D extenso-inclinometer
Reference products codes: DEX-S The DEX-S extenso-inclinometer is a 3D probe with an exclusive merge of two sensors: a high accuracy biaxial MEMS inclinometer to read displacements on horizontal axis, and a contactless magnetic sensor to monitor the vertical displacements. A chain of probes installed in a borehole allows the unique advantage to return a […]
ALACAES Pressure plug instrumentation – Geotechnical monitoring for a research project – Switzerland
ALACAES, an Airlight Energy company, is currently constructing a compressed air energy storage solution that enables large-scale electricity storage. ALACAES’ storage solution will be a valuable solution for grid stabilization and energy balance of the electricity network.This pilot plant in Pollegio, Switzerland, to test the feasibility of its electricity storage solution will exploit an abandoned […]
KLION software for inclinometers and extensometers
Reference products codes: SWKLION KLION is a powerful desktop software designed to manage vertical/horizontal inclinometer and T-Rex extensometer surveys. The software was developed in cooperation with the Geohazard Monitoring Group (GMG) of CNR-IRPI (the Research Institute for Geo-hydrological Protection, a branch of CNR, the Italian National Research Council). It allows to import data from both BRAIN systems and ARCHIMEDE readouts […]
