Single point settlement gauge
The Single point Settlement gauge is used to measure land subsidence or bulging at depth. The instrument takes this measurement topographically on the surface using the brass cap. These gauges come in different versions, i.e. the Plate settlement gauge where the deep anchorage is a metal plate (this type is mainly used when embankments are built) and the Rod settlement gauge, where the deep anchorage consist of a ribbed steel anchor (this type is used for boreholes).
The operating principle is very simple in both cases: a steel rod is inserted into a corrugated plastic sleeve so that it is not affected by the friction exercised by the soil. The end part of the rod is held firmly in the soil by the deep anchorage (plate or ribbed steel anchor). The top of the rod (measuring point) on the surface is subjected to the same amount of subsidence or lifting action as the deep layer of soil in which the rod is anchored. The measurement can be taken topographically to obtain absolute subsidence values.
