• Review geotechnical design, slope profile, and risk areas

• Drill inclinometer boreholes at strategic locations

• Install inclinometer casings securely inside boreholes

• Fill annulus with grout for stable sensor coupling

• Install inclinometer sensors and base reference points

• Take initial baseline readings after installation

• Conduct periodic monitoring at specified intervals

• Record and plot lateral displacement data over time

• Compare movements against design tolerances or stability thresholds

• Generate movement curves, analyze trends, and identify potential failures

• Provide engineering interpretation and early warning recommendations

• Prepare detailed monitoring reports

Inclinometers are used to measure lateral ground or structural movements over time. They are critical for assessing slope stability, excavation support systems, and retaining structures, especially in Sri Lanka’s hilly or coastal terrains.

By installing casings in boreholes and monitoring periodic displacement readings, engineers can track subtle movements that could indicate instability. Early detection allows intervention before significant failures occur, preventing potential property damage or accidents.

Reports include displacement curves, movement trends, and engineering interpretation. The monitoring data informs design adjustments, remedial measures, or operational restrictions, ensuring long-term stability and safety.
