Monitoring of dams and hydraulic structures
Dams, weirs, locks and embankments work under water pressure that changes with the season, with rainfall and with how the reservoir is operated. Inclify measures pore pressures, displacements, tilt and concrete temperature continuously — and shows whether the structure is responding to the water the way it always has.
What we monitor on hydraulic structures
Concrete and earthfill dams, weirs, navigation locks, flood embankments — every measurement on the structure in a single panel.
Pore pressures and seepage
Piezometers in the dam body and in the foundation keep watch on pore pressures and seepage conditions — the parameters that reveal the condition of a dam earliest.
Displacement and tilt
How the dam body, the abutments and the chamber walls behave: displacement and tilt relative to the baseline reading, as a function of the water level.
Water pressure and structural behaviour
Strain in structural members under varying water pressure — vibrating wire sensors with over 20 years of stability, matched to the service life of the structure.
Concrete temperature
The temperature of the concrete mass — essential context for interpreting displacements and strains that "breathe" with the seasons.
A hydraulic structure lives to the rhythm of the water
Water levels change with the time of year, and with them the pressure, the pore pressures and the geometry of the structure. A single reading says little — what counts is the trend seen against previous seasons.
- Baseline reading per project and per sensor — every value refers back to a reference state
- Years of measurement history: the same water level, the same time of year, comparable values
- Warning and alarm thresholds plus no-data supervision on the critical channels
- Real-time SMS, e-mail and push alerts to the teams operating the structure
- Calculation equations — straight from raw readings to the quantities the designer works with
A team that has measured everything from stadiums to locks
Behind Inclify are 15 years of measurement practice on structures where there is no room for error — including monitoring systems for hydraulic locks running during the normal operation of the structure.
- Over 40 sensor types: piezometers, inclinometers, vibrating wire sensors, strain gauges, temperature
- Integration with data loggers already running on the structure — without replacing the existing instrumentation
- An audit trail of every operation and a project log — documentation for the operator of the structure and for the supervising authorities
- CSV/XLSX exports of any range of data for condition assessments and expert opinions
