It is becoming increasingly common and necessary to monitor the potential movement and settlement of adjacent structures, subsurface soils, and underground utilities and infrastructure due to adjacent construction activities. Monitoring programs provide early detection of problems, guide corrective measures, and help mitigate the risk of property damages, project delays, and the risk of litigations.
Blastek’s engineering team has developed vast experience in conducting precision settlement and ground movement monitoring for a wide range of construction activities. Our team of engineers will work closely with our clients and the design teams to develop the most efficient and cost-effective program that is site-specific, taking into consideration the project budget, onsite conditions, and proposed construction methods.
Settlement monitoring can be implemented during the following stages of construction:
