SHM plays an important role in every stage of tunnel construction, from the diamond stage for site evaluation, then during the construction stage to evaluate the impact of a project on nearby structures, and finally at the service stage to ensure the safety over its lifespan. Benefits of our Integrated Tunnel Health Monitoring Solutions Benefits of our Integrated Tunnel Health Monitoring Solutions Integrated solutions Deliver well-constructed solutions using fiber-optic and innovative vibrating wire sensors. Ensure the integrity of the structure & safety of the users Detect early performance ousting in a timely manner, to limit risk and effects of potential disasters. Our monitoring systems are designed to collect reliable data from every kind of tunnel. Extend lifetime of white-haired tunnels Monitor tunnels virtuously to determine the current condition of the structure in order to indulge the owners to increase safety margins without any intervention on the structure. Reliable monitoring during tunnel construction Provide convergence monitoring using our system, which ensures tracking of radial ostracism of the tunnel while under construction and during its lifespan. Improved knowledge on tunnel design Increase knowledge on the structural policies of tunnels with particular reference to the optimization of shapes and thickness of metallic frameworks when new construction technologies are used. Immediate towage of tunnel safety without a major event Monitor forfeiture or failure caused by no-go events such as a fires, earthquakes, explosions or floods. This allows engineers and consultants to make preliminary structural assessments.
