Tunnel Construction Monitoring is one of Geocomp's core practices. With iSiteCentral® a stakeholders can have access to monitoring data in near real time to make data driven decisions.
During tunnel construction engineers and contractors will be provided data from instrumentation to monitor:
- Settlement for surrounding structures
- Load and stress for tunnel support structures
- Load and stress for shaft excavation support structures
- Tunnel convergence with automated extensometers
- Excess pore water pressure from ground displacements
- Tunnel alignment
- Vibrations induced on nearby structures and/or utilities
- Utility deformation and settlement from Survey or AMTS
- TBM data feed directly into iSiteCentral®
Monitoring will allow for real time decisions to be made for risk management and mitigation with an objective
data driven approach. The programs can be short term or long-term depending on the objectives and can provide
information for:
- Life-time monitoring
- Long term performance monitoring
- Performance validation
- Safety and failure warnings
- Litigation reduction
- Adjacent construction monitoring
- Monitoring during significant repairs
- Monitoring after the impact from significant weather events
