Strain Gauges

Details Specifications Documents The SGP-3400 Series of strain gauge piezometers are designed for monitoring soil pore pressure or changes in water level. They are accurate, highly reliable and suitable for use in harsh environments often found within civil engineering applications including water wells, boreholes, dams, reservoirs, rivers, tanks or any other body of water. The sensor is housed in a...

Details Specifications Documents Geosense VWS-2000 series vibrating wire surface mount strain gauges are designed for the long term monitoring of steel or concrete structures. Gauges may be attached to steel structures by arc welding or, using alternative end blocks, bonded or grouted into concrete. The strain gauge operates on the principle that a tensioned wire, when plucked, vibrates at its...

Details Specifications Documents Geosense VWS-2020 series vibrating wire strain gauges are designed primarily to measure strains on the surface of steel structures but may also be used on other types of material. The gauge consists of two end blocks with a tensioned steel wire between them. The end blocks are attached to stainless steel tabs which may be attached to...

Details Specifications Documents Geosense VWS-2100 series vibrating wire embedment strain gauges are designed for direct embedment in concrete. The strain gauge operates on the principle that a tensioned wire, when plucked, vibrates at its resonant frequency. The square of this frequency is proportional to the strain in the wire. The gauge consists of two end blocks with a tensioned steel...

Details Specifications Documents Geosense VWS-4000 series vibrating wire Sister Bars and Rebar Strain Meters are designed to be embedded in concrete to measure strains due to imposed loads. Sister Bar The VWS-4000 Sister Bar is installed by tying it alongside an existing length of rebar within the cage. Available in two diameters: 12 and 16mm. Rebar Strain Meter The VWS-4001...
