Geotec offers various measurement services of ground vibrations and air blast, caused by blasts, heavy duty construction equipment and other sources. The purpose of the measurements is to prevent damage to structures and discomfort to people. Additionally, vibration measurements enable contractors to plan their activities on the basis of accurate scientific information and maximize the efficiency of their work under given conditions.
Applications
- Measurement of air blast caused by the detonation of charges
- Measurement of ground vibrations caused by blasts
- Measurement of ground vibrations caused by transportation and heavy duty construction equipment
- Determination of the scaling law for blasts, heavy duty construction equipment, transportation, piles driving, dynamic compaction, etc.
- Maximal vibrations level as a function of the distance and the released energy
- Calculation of the maximal charge per delay as a function of the distance for a given vibration level
- Calculation of the safe operating distances of heavy duty construction equipment
- Calculation of the scaling law for air blast
