Deformation monitoring services across the globe
Precision monitoring of tunnels, structural frames and bridges.
Fully automated deformation monitoring
We appreciate the critical role deformation measurements can play at Williamson Technical Services Limited, North Wales. Using state-of-the-art electronic devices, we are able to deliver a high level of accuracy with minimal human intervention.
Precision monitoring and measurement
Williamson Technical Services has been monitoring structures, bridges and tunnels for many years. During the 1980s and ’90s, we worked with the Transport and Road Research Laboratories, providing a service to monitor the 3 dimensional deformations during the load testing, to destruction, of 10 no. masonry arch bridges to sub-millimetre tolerances using surveying techniques. The results of the monitoring being presented both graphically and digitally.
Similar techniques, combined with other geo-technical monitoring instruments, have been used to monitor convergence in caverns, brick lined and hard rock tunnels. The advantage of using these techniques over traditional invar wire or tape extensometers is that the measurement of movements can be given an absolute direction instead of being restricted to a relative one.
Results that meet high standards
Work was recently completed on monitoring deflections at 30 positions on an access structure which was loaded in increments over a period of 4 weeks. Use of high precision electronic instruments with an automatic target seeking facility enables such projects to be undertaken with the minimum level of human supervision.
In addition to deformation monitoring, we are also experienced in dimensional surveying and precision engineering. Our office is based in Abergele, North Wales. We have served clients in the UK, the USA., Norway, Malaysia, China, India, Romania, Mexico, Belgium, Brazil, Serbia, Italy, Spain, Germany and France.
