Descrizione

The first class port of Catania consists of an artificial basin limited to the east by the Molo di Levante and to the south by the Molo di Mezzogiorno.
In the New Port we distinguish the east brush with the outer pier on the dus and the west brush, the entrance consists of an opening of 200 meters.

The project involved the installation of 25 mini strain gauge bars with vibrating wire, aimed at carrying out a load test on the pilot pole, as part of the construction works of the new commercial dock, at the port of Catania.
We then proceeded to identify the monitoring sections, the installation points of the sensors, their installation and setting.

Instrumentation:

Spot weldable strain gauge
