Observation and instrumentation

The diversity of works carried out led to the creation of complementary business areas, capable of serving the company’s own production and of meeting other market demands.

Within this scope, the structure observation and monitoring service is highlighted. It was created as a result of the need to control deformations of land and structures arising from the excavation of tunnels, with special focus on the case of paths in urban areas, as is the case of underground tunnels.

This EPOS service integrates a specialized technical framework equipped with a set of cutting-edge equipment, aimed at the performance of complex instrumentation and monitoring services, using the most modern IT techniques and platforms, among which the following are highlighted:

  • Topographical/geotechnical monitoring
  • Structural monitoring
  • Vibration monitoring
  • Development of Instrumentation Plans
  • Equipment installation

Following-up some of the most relevant projects, this service is available in Portugal, Spain and Venezuela.
