Performance Review of Slope Inclinometers in a Pipeline Geohazard Management Program
Heidi Manicke, Doug Dewar
In the proceedings of: GeoCalgary 2022: 75th Canadian Geotechnical ConferenceSession: T10
ABSTRACT: Slope Inclinometer (SI) technology has evolved over the past 50 years with refinements to sensors, cables, data collection/interpretation and the advent of complementary in-place inclinometers (IPI) and ShapeArrayTM (SA) technologies. Fundamentally, the basic technology of monitoring the deformation of a casing or device placed in a borehole has not changed since the advent of SIs. SIs are often the primary geotechnical tool for landslide characterization and monitoring. Data from the review of 64 non-operable and 163 operating borehole inclinometer (BI) installations is presented along with observations from the implementation of a pipeline geohazard management program (GMP) within Western Canada. The contributions of SIs to the overall GMP are evaluated and guidance for the future use of SI/SA/IPI technologies in pipeline GMPs is provided.
