Le projet d'agrandissement de l'aéroport de Hong Kong actuellement en cours implique d'importants travaux de récupération des terres sur la mer. Afin d'évaluer les propriétés mécaniques, des essais au pressiomètre ont été entrepris.
The Kathryn Spirit is a cargo ship currently docked in the Port of Beauharnois, 30 km from Montreal. A cofferdam had to be built around the ship to protect the St. Lawrence River from possible polution
Thanks to the measurements obtained with the SOFO system, it will be possible to follow the behavior of the structure when boats dock at the pier.
The tunnel is used as compensation chamber for the Luzzone hydropower plant. Due the dam raising it was necessary to enlarge this chamber.
The cross-section of the tunnel consists of two concrete vaults. The length of the tunnel is 1230 m.
To optimise the support and confining structures in this area, SMARTEC SA was asked to install SOFO sensors to monitor the buttresses at the tunnel entrance and the concrete lining inside the tunnel.
The major project of the Belgian rail way at the beginning of 21 century is the construction of a new high-speed railroad from Brussels via Liege and Aachen to Cologne.
Structural monitoring of few section in a water tunnel in London.
Monitor the convergence and generally the structural behavior in one specific section of the tunnel where there are border conditions changes.
