INCLINOMETER SPIRAL SENSOR
The MEMS Inclinometer Spiral Sensor is used to determine down-hole helical deformation of installed inclinometer casing. Installed casing spiral is a function of the manufacturing process, casing coupling, and installation technique.
Description
The Geosense Spiral Probe is used to measure the spiral in installed inclinometer casing. Within a vertical inclinometer installation there will be a combination of borehole spiral deformation (twist) which is a combination of the properties of the inclinometer casing during manufacture plus the quality of the installation. In deep installations (>50m) the affects of this can be significant and therefore it is important to understand the magnitude of any twist.
It can be used with any compatible vertical inclinometer system by using the same cable, reel, and hand-held readout. It is only necessary to read one data set; no 180 degree second reading set is required. Inclinometer Software processes the resulting spiral data set.

Drive-in piezometers, also referred to as push-in piezometers, are designed for installing in soft clays, organic or fine grained cohesionless soils typically with a SPT-N value less than 10. They are available with a CPT fitting or 1” BSP thread.
Depending on the depth and type of soil, they can either be pushed directly into the soil from ground level to the required depth or pushed into the base of a CPT test or drilled borehole.
