Monitoring
The distance between the monitoring datum is measured and recorded on the crack record sheet (supplied).
The rate and trend of movement becomes apparent as subsequent readings are taken.
Monitoring in Corners
Cracks may be monitored in corners using Avongard Corner Discs.
Use singly to monitor two dimensional movement or in pairs to monitor three dimensional movement.
