Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of geotechnical engineering monitoring and detection, and particularly relates to a measuring device and method for correcting the torsional error of the guide groove of an inclinometer tube. Background Art

[0002] In the field of geotechnical engineering, it is often necessary to observe the deep horizontal displacement of foundation pits, slopes, retaining walls, etc., and the vertical displacement of horizontal pipe curtains, etc. An inclinometer is a commonly used monitoring instrument for observing deep horizontal and vertical displacements. When using the inclinometer method to observe displacement, the inclinometer tube needs to be passed through a vertical borehole through the unstable soil layer to the lower stable stratum or drilled through the entire pipe curtain in the horizontal pipe curtain. The inclinometer probe is positioned by relying on the guide groove of the inclinometer tube. The torsion of the guide groove of the inclinometer tube will cause the deflection of the actual measurement azimuth angle of the inclinometer, and it is impossible to determine the actual displacement direction and magnitude inside the stratum. The torsional error of the guide groove of the inclinometer tube is generally caused by the following reasons: First, due to the influence of the material and manufacturing process of the inclinometer tube, the torsional angle of the guide groove is relatively large; second, the length of the inclinometer tube is relatively large. After multiple inclinometer tubes are connected, the torsional angles of the guide grooves are superimposed, resulting in a greater change in the torsional angle; third, after the inclinometer tube is buried in the monitoring object, under the action of external forces, the guide groove is distorted. Therefore, in order to accurately measure the internal displacement of the rock and soil mass, it is necessary to observe the torsional angle of the guide groove of the inclinometer tube before the internal displacement monitoring, so as to correct the measurement results.
