Structure Deformation Measurement
Through the installation of benchmarks, periodic reading, control and precise monitoring of the displacements of the structures are made. Displacement control may be done using different measurement techniques and modes for each type of construction.
The repression is one of the main causes of damage to structures and can lead, in some cases, to collapse. The control of repression is necessary from its identification until the stabilization of the structure.
The importance of monitoring deformation relates to issues of safety, quality and durability of buildings. The control and monitoring of deformations will allow an assessment to be made if the results are in line with the limits established in Brazilian engineering standards. The control and monitoring of deformations allows evaluating whether the results are below the limits established in Brazilian engineering standards.
