Landslide monitoring with borehole inclinometers Landslides rarely occur without warning. In most cases, the ground begins to move slowly underground long before visible cracks or collapses appear on the surface. Detecting these deep movements early is essential to protect infrastructure, construction sites, transportation networks, and communities exposed to hydrogeological risk. This is why borehole inclinometers…
From small ground deformations to major risks In geotechnical and structural monitoring, even a few millimeters can make the difference between stability and failure. Small ground deformations often represent the first warning signs of landslides, foundation settlement, retaining wall instability, or structural stress. If these movements are not detected early, they can evolve into critical failures with…
