Common uses
of LVDTs in Civil & Structural Engineering Applications
|
Prepared by Harold Schaevitz

-
Using Spring loaded LVDT for displacement measurement
of imbedded concrete anchors tested for tensile, compression, bending
strength and crack growth in concrete.
-
Spring loaded LVDTs are used for measuring deformation
and creep of concrete wall used for retaining wall in large gas
pipe installation.
-
Free core LVDTs used in dynamic measurement of
fatigue in large structural components used in suspension bridges.
-
Spring loaded LVDT used in down-hole application:
measuring displacement (creep) of bedrock.
