Tunnel monitoring
Use remote tunnel monitoring before, during and after construction for crucial data about the behaviour of the tunnel, the ground and third party assets in the zone of influence.
Trust Senceive technology for the tough demands of underground projects and to provide precise, reliable structural and geotechnical data to help you address the unique challenges of your tunnelling project.
Structural Health Monitoring for Tunnels
Our sensors measure a range of parameters including:
- Tunnel Convergence and Divergence
- Longitudinal Settlement and Heave
- Structural parameters: Strain and Load
- Joint and Crack Displacement
- Temperature
- Ground movement
- Groundwater pressure
Tunnel Monitoring Solutions
The most widely used sensors are our high-precision Nano Triaxial Tilt Sensors which measure rotation about the horizontal axis.
Other widely used sensors are Optical Displacement Sensors for measuring tunnel convergence and divergence.
Additionally, our Digital Interface Node is a versatile digital data logger, compatible with various instruments like inclinometers, extensometers, piezometers, load/pressure cells, temperature sensors and vibration sensors, making it ideal for comprehensive tunnel monitoring and tunnel inspections.

Easy installation during tunnelling projects
Senceive sensors can be supplied with a wide range of brackets and fixings for use at any angle on virtually any surface.
Remote Tunnel Monitoring Capabilities
As with any of our wireless monitoring solutions, data is transmitted from the sensors via Gateway to the data viewing software of your choice.
In order to relay data from the sensor positions deep underground to the Gateway that is typically located just outside the portal, repeater nodes may be used.
Alternatively, Wi-Fi or ethernet connections can be used where available.
Advantages of wireless monitoring for tunnels:

Small wireless sensors will not interfere with your operations.
Long-life
Rugged technology provides precise data for many years; built to withstand demanding conditions.
Flexible
Adapt and expand the monitoring system as your project progresses.
Automated alerts
Early warning without leaving your desk.
Cost effective
Save money through reduced site visits and long-life performance.
