With new structures continually extending the limits of design and materials technology, it is essential that the behaviour of these structures is monitored, both to confirm design parameters and to provide valuable data for the next generation of structures. Modern instrumentation for such measurements is both accurate and reliable and may be connected to data loggers for automatic or real time monitoring. Fugro has a long history as the primary instrumentation specialist in Hong Kong and has the sole agency for many of the world's primary instrument suppliers. Instrumentation is supplied, installed and monitored for a wide range of applications including:-

• Slope stability
