Vibrating Wire strain gauges
Precise Monitoring of Stress and Tension in Structural Applications
The Vibrating Wire Strain Gauges BCV-001 are designed to measure stress in load-bearing structures and monitor the tensions in tunnel linings, particularly during excavation phases. These gauges are essential for verifying the stress and deformations in both temporary and permanent retaining structures. Using a vibrating wire within a stainless steel tube, this tool provides accurate and reliable data for geotechnical and structural monitoring.
Key Features:
- Range: 3000 με
- Accuracy: <0.5% F.S.
- Standard Frequency: 800 Hz
- Temperature Range: -20/+80°C (with internal thermistor)
- Protection Rating: IP68 (dust and waterproof)
- Sturdy Construction: Suitable for harsh environments
- Functionality: Works in both tension and compression, can be installed externally or embedded in concrete
Applications:
- Monitoring stress in concrete structures, beams, and columns
- Monitoring foundations, slurry walls, and tunnel linings
- Measuring tensions in steel structures, pipes, and centrings
- Monitoring deformation in dams, bridges, and viaducts
- Stress measurement in ports and other large infrastructure projects
Functionality: Structural monitoring
Innovative solutions for stress and strain control
Intelligent geotechnical monitoring for reliable infrastructure
Modern engineering demands continuous control of critical structural parameters to ensure both safety and long-term performance. Accurate monitoring of stresses and strains enables engineers to anticipate potential issues before they arise, significantly reducing the risk of costly failures. By integrating advanced strain measurement solutions with data acquisition and remote supervision systems, it becomes possible to build a complete picture of structural behavior – from tunnels and bridges to dams and foundations – supporting smarter design and more efficient asset management.
