Ivor King uses the Vibrock V9000 Seismograph, an

intelligent data logging seismograph that can be configured

to perform various monitoring operations, including vibration

events caused by piling activities.

It is a lightweight, non-intrusive, weather-proofed unit

designed for use in rugged conditions, such as construction

sites. The V9000 Seismograph is also ideal for monitoring

in commercial and industrial locations, as well as at

residential properties.

Where the method of piling installation causes vibration,

monitoring of vibration levels to adjacent properties may be

necessary, operating within the guidance set out in

BS 5228-2:2009 + A1:2014 and BS 7385-2:1993.

Seismic monitoring allows us to keep within any pre-defined

vibration limits, which in turn ensures that peak

measurements caused by piling activity are not likely to lead

to surrounding building damage. Where readings exceed

any pre-defined vibration thresholds, alternative pile

installation methods may need to be considered.

Using the Vibrock’s built-in modem, results can be viewed

and captured in real time via a remote desktop computer, or

downloaded remotely following piling activity. Conversely,

results can be reviewed at site via the machine’s LCD

display and downloaded on to a USB device.
