Geotechnical Monitoring

Instrumental, geotechnical and geodetic monitoring of structures and slopes.

01

Design and Installation of Geotechnical Systems

We design technically robust and constructible solutions for geotechnical monitoring, from preliminary concepts through detailed calculations and execution documents. Loads, ground conditions, serviceability, durability and construction sequence are considered together. Alternatives are compared so that safety, environmental impact, programme and cost remain proportionate to the project. Depending on the assignment, the work may use or refer to FEM, GLE.

02

Geodetic Monitoring and Surface Displacements

We define the parameters, instruments, measurement intervals and data workflows needed for effective geotechnical monitoring. Measurements are checked, visualised and compared with project-specific alarm thresholds. Where required, automated notifications and a 24/7 on-call procedure provide rapid escalation and a documented basis for operational decisions. Depending on the assignment, the work may use or refer to GNSS.

03

Data Management and Alarm Thresholds

We define the parameters, instruments, measurement intervals and data workflows needed for effective geotechnical monitoring. Measurements are checked, visualised and compared with project-specific alarm thresholds. Where required, automated notifications and a 24/7 on-call procedure provide rapid escalation and a documented basis for operational decisions.

04

Expert Assessment and Legal Support

We prepare independent technical assessments based on documented observations, calculations and applicable Swiss requirements. The conclusions are written so that clients, authorities, designers and legal advisers can understand the technical reasoning and its limitations. We can also support negotiations, administrative procedures, disputes and the implementation of agreed measures.
