Categories: ,
Description

Geosense® Casagrande piezometers are made up of low air entry porous plastic or ceramic elements which are connected to standpipe tubing and lowered into a predrilled borehole. Alternative types may be driven or pushed into soft soil.

Where Casagrande type piezometers are being installed then the porous element is surrounded by filter sand and a Bentonite seal placed above this response zone.

Water level measurements are normally taken using a water level meter (dip meter) or in the case of artesian pressure a Bourdon pressure gauge is attached to the top.

NANO TRIAXIAL TILT SENSOR

,

In stock

The Nano range uses the same core platform as our other tilt sensors, so it can deliver a similar level of performance and reliability, all in a small and robust enclosure. Nanos have been successfully used in many applications, including:
  • Tunnel distortion
  • Tunnel heave/settlement
  • Embankment slippage (used in conjunction with stake mounts)
  • Structural movement
  • Rail track heave/settlement
  • Rail trackbed cant and twist

DRIVE-IN PIEZOMETERS WP-3400 & SGP-3500 SERIES

,

In stock

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.
