Vibrating Wire Piezometers

VW piezometers are used to monitor porewater pressure. They can also be used to monitor water levels.
Typical applications include:

Monitoring porewater pressuresto determine safe rates of fill or excavation.
Monitoring porewater pressuresto determine slope stability.
Monitoring the effects of dewatering systems used for excavations.
Monitoring the effects of ground improvement systems such as vertical drains and sand drains.
Monitoring pore pressuresto check the performance of earth fill dams and embankments.
Monitoring pore pressuresto check containmentsystems at land fills and tailings dams.
