Model E17 -Rod Extensometer System
The Rod Extensometer system accurately measures settlement and/or heave at single or multiple anchor points in a borehole relative to it’s reference head. The system employs up to eight rods, anchored along the axis of a borehole with a diameter from 50mm up to 200mm, terminating in the reference head at the borehole entrance. The Rod Extensometer system can be assembled on-site or can be supplied pre-assembled to specified lengths and coiled to ensure a quicker and easier installation.
