What is a Tiltmeter?

This instrument is useful in many areas, from oceanography to volcano shift measurement, measurement of air current, and seismic activity. To detect changes in the soil or structures, engineers use this equipment. By installing these devices in boreholes or positioning them in particular positions, tiltmeter consultants can see vibrations and track shifting conditions in either material.

What is an Extensometer?

This equipment offers ratings of a material's strength when it is under a load. Tensile strength is used to conduct this test and determine accurate results. Several readings can be given by the unit, including the yield point lengthening, strain ratios, and other elongation numbers.

Extensometers and Tiltmeters Used in Construction

In civil, engineering, and geotechnical fields, there are several ways in which these tools are important. These are necessary measuring devices for testing soil conditions and monitoring building settling and tracking how blasting or digging affects the soil and other structures.
