Extensometer

Extensometers are instrumental observation equipment used to measure settlement, heave, displacement and deformation in soil and rock.

Main Areas of Use:

– Deep Excavations
– Foundations
– Dams
– Fillings
– Tunnels
– Shafts
– Sheet pilings

Origin: England

There are various types of extensometers that serve different purposes.

It is a typical extensometer model used to measure settlements and displacements at different levels.

It is used to measure vertical and lateral displacements under embankments and dams.

It is a combination of rock bolts and extensometers and is used to determine the load on rock bolts.

They are systems consisting of a series of rod-type extensometers and arms to monitor the deformation of the tunnel wall.

It enables the measurement of settlement at different levels by means of magnetic references placed around the inclinometer pipes.

It is used in anchors where the surrounding ground is not required to be affected by the injection.

Used to locate magnetic references.
