Using Resensys’s high precision tilt SenSpot™ sensors (HRT), movement, settling, deformation and abnormal tilting of bridge piers are detected before such issues become major problems or lead to safety compromise and/or road closure. High precision tilt data helps calculate vertical/horizontal displacement of piers, pylons and spans.
Resensys's medium-resolution tilt SenSpot™ sensors (MRT) can also be used for monitoring a bridge's bearings and expansion joints.
SenSpot™ uses Resensys’s proprietary sensing, scheduling and ultra-low power synchronization technology. SenSpot™ is designed to operate maintenance-free for more than a decade. After installation, SenSpot™ does not need calibration, battery replacement, or any other maintenance during its entire service life. The tilt/Inclination SenSpot™ is a breakthrough tool for precise monitoring of tilt, inclination, settling, bending, deformation, and deflection. Using Resensys’s high precision tilt SenSpotTM sensors, movement, settling, deformation and abnormal tilting of bridge piers are detected at an early stage. High precision tilt data helps calculate vertical/horizontal displacement of piers, pylons and spans.
Featured Applications
• Monitoring deflection, bending, settling of piers, abutments at high precision (resolution 0.00016 degree or 0.5 arc seconds)
• Monitoring of bridge bearings and expansion joints.
• Monitoring vertical/ horizontal displacement in spans, pylons, piers using analytical model
• Detecting change in tilt caused by settling, deformation, or permanent change in loading
• Detecting any over-tilting or unhealthy change in tilt that may affect overall safety of the structure
