ABSTRACT: Instrumentation and monitoring form the vital link between design hypothesis and actual performance of construction work. It
is impossible to fully define the subsurface condition and its response to underground works. As a result instrumentation and monitoring
forms a crucial component of the risk management procedure to achieve these objectives. The use of different types of instruments andmonitoring frequency to capture the impact of underground works to surrounding ground and structures within the zone of influence arediscussed in this paper. These instrument readings are referred to the pre-established design threshold values defined as AAA (Alert, Actionand Alarm) with a complete AAA response procedure. A proactive action plan can be implemented based on evaluation of the monitoring
data thus ensuring thesafety of job site and surroundings.
KEYWORDS: Risk management, Instrumentation control, Underground works, Data evaluation, Proactive action
1. INTRODUCTION
The 9.5km twin-bored KVMRT tunnels comprises of 7 undergroundstations, 2 portals, 6 shafts and some cut and cover tunnels. Thetunnel alignments pass through challenging geological formations(Kenny Hill and Karstic Limestone) and constructed entirely in the
heart of Klang Valley. For ease of reference sites within Kenny Hill
formation was termed UG1 and UG2 for sites in the KarsticLimestone formation. In order to ensure smooth operation of thismega project, instrumentation and monitoring plays an importantrole in providing vital and timely information to the entire
construction and design team, client, stakeholders and public atlarge. Various types of instruments were placed on the surface and
sub-surface to monitor the surrounding ground conditions andstructures during tunnelling and excavation works. Close to 10,000
instruments were installed and monitored in this mega project.
As construction progresses, exact geotechnical observations and
behaviour monitored using instrumentation assisted construction
team and designers to make a judgment, evaluate and make changesto construction methodology or design parameters, if necessary.Hence, instrumentation monitoring plays an integral part inachieving better control of construction, design verification, safety
of the structures besides legal protection and related economicissues.
All monitored geotechnical parameters were observed and compared
with pre-established design threshold values defined as AAA (Alert,Action and Alarm). A well-documented response procedure was putin place to ensure all involved in the project are receptive to the
instrumentation monitoring results and work proactively to ensure
safe job site and surroundings.
2. INSTRUMENTATION IN KVMRT UNDERGROUND
WORKS
The list of some major instruments used in the KVMRT (UG)project and its function is summarised in Table 1. In this paper, theperformance of some selected instruments in relation to excavationand tunnelling works will be discussed.
2.1 Water Standpipes
During the site investigation stage, some of the SI boreholes wereconverted into water standpipe to monitor the seasonal fluctuation of
water level along the tunnel alignment. For station excavation work,
water standpipes installed at least 1 month before any active
construction works starts. The water table of the surrounding isrequired to verify the design assumption prior to excavation worksso that control measures or re-analysis can be implemented if thereare any changes to the water table level that could impact the
surrounding ground and structures during excavation. As a controlmeasure to maintain ground water level where drawdown is
anticipated, gravity recharge wells with control valves maybe pre-installed subject to the field permeability of the ground.
Table 1 List of Instruments for KVMRT (UG) Project
Measurement of water level from a standpipe is done using a dipmeter which beeps when immersed in water thus providing the
depth of ground water table at this specific water standpipe. Figure 1
shows measurement being taken at a water standpipe in KVMRTMerdeka Station.

Based on the water drawdown simulated in analysis due toexcavation or tunnelling work in different ground condition, the
AAA values adopted differ from station to station. The AAAthreshold values adopted for KVMRT Cochrane Station andMerdeka Station are as shown in Table 2.

The water level measured during the excavation stage was used to
counter check the design assumption and to carry out re-analysisbased on the real measurement which is able to provide saving interm of cost and time for construction work. At KL Sentral Station,
the water level based on the monitoring is found to be lowercompared to the water level assumed in the original analysis. The re-
analysis based on the water table measured shows that there is lessactive force and deflection on the existing diaphragm wall comparedto the original design analysis. This has resulted to the omission ofone level of strut (final level) for the stretch of approximately 56m
over the total length of station of 149m. The wall deflection andstruts loading, and ground anchor loading were found to be wellwithin Alert Level throughout the excavation stage as well as themovement of the nearby Muzium Negara building.Saving of time
and cost for construction work has been achieved through this re-analysis study.
2.2 Inclinometers in Wall and Soil
Inclinometers are typically used to measure deflection of the casinginstalled in vertical boreholes. In this project, inclinometers wereused to measure deflection due to sub-surface soil movement anddeflection in the diaphragm wall (D-Wall) and secant bored pilewall (SBP Wall) that was constructed prior to deep excavation
works. The length of inclinometers installed in this project is
generally long where the length reaches 65m at some site due todeep excavation depth. Combination of inclinometer in soil and inwall was used in this project.
Inclinometers play an important role in providing vital information
on the performance of the retaining structure (D-Wall or SBP wall)during excavation works. The quality and accuracy of data is
paramount in ensuring safe construction at all time. To ensurereliable and accurate deflections are recorded, besides the
Figure 2 Schematics of inclinometer installation for KVMRT (UG)project
measurement technique and probe quality, it is important to socket
the inclinometer casing into hard stratum to ensure that there is nomovement at the toe of the inclinometer casing which acts as thereference point for the deflection measurement of the remaining
casing above it. In this project, the inclinometers were socketed 3minto rock or 5m into hard layer (SPT>50). A typical sketch of
inclinometer installation is shown in Figure 2.
Figure 3 Example of deflection profile for inclinometer in wall at
KVMRT Merdeka Station
A typical inclinometer deflection profile is shown in Figure 3. The
inclinometer deflection shown was upon completion of base slab forthe KVMRT Merdeka Station that was constructed by bottom up
method where temporary retaining wall was restrained by temporarystrutting system until the excavation reaches the final excavation

level (FEL). In this particular case all inclinometers deflection at
different stage of excavation was below the AAA threshold valueand demonstrates that the construction methodology, ground
conditions, etc. were well within the design judgements.
Figure 4 Comparison of inclinometer reading of INW11 with
relevant section of Plaxis analysis output at Merdeka Station
The comparison of inclinometer reading with the Plaxis outputdeflection based on design analysis give an understanding of theperformance of temporary retaining wall while construction is on-going. The comparison graphs are shown in Figure 4. If the
performance is better than the predicted profile by analysis,optimization could be proposed subjected to site condition and re-analysis.
2.3 Ground Settlement Markers (GSM) & Tunnel Array
Monitoring the surface ground condition will be essential in areasthat are close to public access such as roads, utilities, buildings andstructures. GSM are markers installed on the ground and
measurement of ground level at this marker is taken using survey
instruments at specific monitoring frequency depending on theconstruction activity. In this project, GSMs were installed within thezone of influence of station excavation work and tunnelling work.
GSMs were used to determine the impact of station construction onits surrounding and also the impact of tunnelling on the surfacealong the tunnel alignment. This information was used to counter
check the design assumptions. Volume loss calculations based on
the GSM readings serves as a reference for tunnel team to adjusttheir TBM operational parameters.
Figure 5 Example of tunnel GSM array type D and D1
For tunnelling related works, the GSMs were installed in arrays
(shown in Figure 5) to capture cross sectional settlement that will beused to calculate the volume loss and to adjust the TBM parameters
for more effective tunnelling ahead. A typical settlement plot forarray GSM during TBM mining from Semantan NP to KVMRT KLSentral Station is as shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6 Array settlement profile during tunnelling boring works
The estimated volume loss for this array (CH1+450) was 0.13%which is within the 1% as per assumed for building impact
assessment design.
2.4 Optical Prisms and Automatic Total Station (ATS)
Optical prism provides information of point movement in x,y,zdirection with minimum 0.5mm accuracy. Most commonly theseinstruments are installed on sensitive structures and are read on areal-time basis using an Automatic Total Station (ATS). In this
project the numerous ATS were used to monitor various critical and
sensitive structures such as railway, historical buildings, bridges,stadium where close monitoring is required. The KVMRT tunnelswere crossing below the existing SMART Motorway tunnel andreal-time monitoring works for the upper and lower deck using ATS
were implemented. Figure 7 (a) and (b) shows a picture of the
optical prisms and ATS that was mounted on the lower deck of theSMART Motorway tunnel.
Due to some of the sites being located at the urban area (i.e. BukitBintang Station) where the buildings are densely built, it is achallenge to find a suitable location to place the ATS to aim at all

A typical plot of the optical prism movement in the z-directionwhich denotes the settlement is shown in Figure 8. The effect ofboth TBM mining below the SMART tunnel is very minimal.

2.5 Electrolevel Beam Sensor (EL Beam)
The electrolevel beam sensor (EL Beam) is used to monitordifferential movement and rotation of structures with high precision.Horizontal EL Beams sensors can be used to measure settlement and
heave whereas the vertical EL Beams is used to measure lateralmovement and tilt. At the vicinity of KVMRT Maluri Station, thereis a LRT station and track viaduct that fall within the influence zone
of the station excavation and tunnelling works. In view of this,
structural strengthening (underpinning) works were carried out forthe effected piers and instrumentation and monitoring was essentialthroughout the KVMRT construction work. Stringent AAAthreshold values were adopted to ensure necessary precautionary
measures can be taken before any serious damage is caused to thestructure or affect the train operations. Thus, a total of 12 nos. of ELBeams were installed at numerous locations along Maluri LRTviaduct as per layout in Figure 9. The monitoring of these EL Beams
was automated using a data logging system and were monitored onhourly basis.
Since the EL Beam is electrolytic based, it is sensitive to
temperature. Even though EL Beam is equipped with temperature
Figure 9 EL Beam layout for Maluri LRT viaduct. (Inset - EL Beaminstalled on the beams of this structure)
correction within the instrument itself, the measured data must be
corrected against the surrounding temperature fluctuations. For this
project, we have established the system temperature correlation foreach individual EL Beams. All these instruments are installed
outdoor and are prone to expansion and contraction effects due tosurrounding temperature change and the actual recorded values canbe affected under this circumstances. Figure 10 shows the distortion
values for 2 nos. EL Beams with and without correction. Normally acyclic pattern can be observed on the measured readings that are
affected by consistent daily temperature fluctuations. Uponcorrection this cyclic effect can be minimized or eliminated thusreflecting the actual distortion values.
Figure 10 EL Beam readings before and after system temperature
correction
The distortion values were significantly lower with minimalfluctuations upon applying temperature correction. For example forEL Beam 1, the maximum recorded distortion of 0.257 mm/m has
significantly reduced to 0.048 mm/m after the correction. Thedistortion due to the temperature fluctuation would have triggered a
false alarm since the Alert level was set at 0.25mm/m.
The impact of tunnelling and station excavation works on the MaluriLRT viaduct was also monitored by other instruments such asoptical prisms, BSM, tilt plate and vibrometer besides the EL Beam.The vibration and distortion have not breached the AAA limit
during TBM crossing as seen in Figure 11 and Figure 12.

3. INSTRUMENTATION MONITORING CRITERIA AND
DATA MANAGEMENT
Upon installation of instruments, monitoring works commences.The frequency of monitoring works varies in accordance to the
instrument type, sensitivity of structure and impact of constructionactivity. Monitoring results are submitted by the specialist
monitoring contractors to the projects instrumentation team. Theinstrumentation result will be sent out to the Supervising consultant
(SC), site team, client and other related personnel for action afterchecking process is done. If there is any reading that breached the
AAA level, prompt notification will be sent to relevant parties
immediately so that required mitigation measure can be carried outin a timely manner. Monitoring data for the instruments in theKVMRT (UG) project is also available via an on-line monitoring
system for easy and immediate access for defined users.
3.1 Monitoring Criteria for Tunnelling and Excavation Works
As mentioned earlier in this paper, instruments are installed
minimum 1 month prior to any construction activity. This 1 month
monitoring records is known as baseline record and will be used toestablish the baseline for a specific instrument before starting ofconstruction work at site. Information about the construction impact
based on the instrument response will be meaningful only if a goodbaseline has been established.
The monitoring frequency changes from weekly basis duringbaseline period to daily basis when excavation works commence
until backfilling of the station box. For deep excavation works, the
monitoring frequency adopted for KVMRT (UG) sites for varioustype of instruments are listed in Table 3.
Table 3 Monitoring frequency during excavation for various types
of instruments
For tunnelling works the monitoring frequency is adopted based onthe TBM progress and an example of monitoring requirement for
UG1 tunnelling works is described in Table 4.
Table 4 Monitoring Frequency for bored tunnel in UG1
DISTANCE MONITORINGFREQUENCY (UG1)
50m behind the TBM and 25m in front of
cutter head
Daily
Between 50m to 100m behind the TBM Twice a week
100m to 300m behind the TBM Weekly
300m behind the TBM End of monitoring
*Monitoring frequency is Indicative only and if necessary can be varied
These monitoring criteria (as per Table 3 and Table 4) are applied
for all instruments within the influence zone of excavation and
tunnelling. The frequency of monitoring could be changed subjectedto the site condition especially when a more closely monitoring isrequired at particular area.
As this project is carried out in the heart of the city, sensitive and
critical structures located within the influence zone has been preidentified and special instrumentation and monitoring requirementswere used to monitor them while the work is on-going. Some of the
sensitive structures are including National Museum, Syariah Court,KTMB HQ, Bangunan Stesen Keretapi, Stadium Negara, and etc.

3.2 On-line Instrumentation Monitoring System
The monitoring data submitted to the instrumentation team on adaily basis is also checked and updated constantly on to a web-based
on-line monitoring system which is capable of managing largecapacity data from real-time monitoring instruments as well as TBMparameters and progress. A caption of this on-line monitoring screen
is shown in Figure 14.
Figure 14 Web-based instrumentation and TBM monitoring system
This system allows multiple users to login simultaneously and canbe accessed via computer or even smart phones provided they areconnected to internet. This system is able to send prompt via SMS
or email to relevant personnel immediately if there is any breachingof AAA level. This would help to create a good communication linkso that mitigation or safety measure can be carried out in a timelymanner.
4. AAA RESPONSE PROCEDURE AND ACTION PLANS
Upon any monitored instrument breaching the AAA limit, a series
of predefined procedures has been put in place to ensure immediate
and appropriate measures are taken by parties involved.
4.1 AAA Level and Respective Action
When Alert Level is breached, a joint site inspection will be carried
out by the instrumentation team, Supervising Consultant (SC), andrespective site team to check on the instrument and surroundings.
Table 5 AAA Action Plan
Upon the breaching of the second AAA level which is Action Level,besides the site visit, a plan will be put forward in order to ensure
relevant control measure are taken before the instrument breaching
the Alarm level. In the event when instrument breaches Alarm level,site works will be reassessed with respective mitigation measure if
required or works within the area of concern could be suspended
upon SCs advice. In all the above AAA breach, AAA report will becreated and documented for circulation. Details of AAA action plan
are summarized in Table 5.
4.2 AAA Report
AAA reports are created for every level of AAA that is breached. A
notification is sent out and a brief report describing the site activityrelated to the breached instrument will be created by instrumentationteam. Within the stipulated timeframe, the brief AAA report will be
jointly completed by the instrumentation team with input from SC
and construction team detailing immediate response, site activity,site instruction, review of subsequent monitoring, action plan andrecommendation by the SC as listed in Table 6. A sample of AlertReport is shown in Appendix 1. This report will be circulated to the
parties involved for action to be taken as per recommendations.

Instrumentation monitoring is often related to emergency responseplan (ERP) especially when concerning public safety. During the
TBM mining work at KTM rail track, the ERP was drafted together
with KTMB personnel for effective and comprehensive action to be
taken when necessary. The response plan in the event of anyinstrument installed on the track breach the AAA level is presentedat Appendix 2
5. LESSONS LEARNT & RECOMMENDATIONS
Instrumentation is a vital link between design and construction. Theaccuracy of the instrumentation data is important as designers and
contractor will use these data to verify the design assumption and tocheck on the performance of the construction work or the impact tothe surrounding. Accuracy and verification of monitoring data mustbe done at all level by the specialist contractor before official
submissions and upon this if any abnormal results are observed byinstrumentation team or supervising consultant, the monitoring data
must be checked thoroughly to avoid false alerts that could cause
serious detrimental effects to the project and its safety.
Automated system is recommended to be applied on the instrument
that is prone to wear and tear due to frequent measuring action suchas inclinometer. New instruments and technology such as fiber opticsensing system can be implemented as an alternative. This could
help to solve the line of sight problem on the surveying as our tunnelconstruction involved a long distance and located in the highly
dense urban area.
QA/QC procedures to ensure that the basic tools like the measuring
instruments and datum are properly maintained, certified andcomplied in order to ensure that the true instrumentation response is
captured.
Due to the mega scale of this project which involves thousands of
data to be assimilated daily, a data management system capable ofdisplaying information with the added functionality such as
restricted access and alert capability is crucial in creating aneffective monitoring system so that proper action/counteractions canbe implemented in a timely manner.

6. CONCLUSION
Instrumentation plays an important part in the construction ofKVMRT (UG) tunnels and related stations, shafts and portals. A
combination of various types of instruments serves as important
information to verify the design assumption, to check theperformance of the construction work and to ensure safety byproviding early warning. Thus the selection of instrumentation and
location should be carefully considered and not to exhaust withinstruments and voluminous data leading to lack of appreciation tothe data acquired. Instrumentation requirement should not be a case
of just putting them in regular grid pattern hoping to capture any
unforeseen events but more importantly placed in location thatwould provide beneficial information for design and constructionimprovement. A comprehensive procedure to address the instrumentthat breached AAA creates an effective monitoring system enabling
the mitigation measure to be established in a timely manner which
enhances the safety. Tunnelling impact on surrounding ground andimproving the TBM parameters based on instrumentation results andoptimizing design parameters are key indicator for continuous
success in future projects.
