Vibrating Wire Jointmeter

The Vibrating Wire Jointmeter is used to monitor joints of mass concrete structures. The instrument consists of two parts, a socket and the main body with a waterproof vibrating wire-sensing gauge. During construction of the structure, the socket is secured to the form and embedded into a lift of the block to be constructed. After removal of the form, and prior to concreting of adjacent block, the gauge is screwed into the socket, set at the desired range and then embedded
