This calibrated tell-tale is easy to install with screws, nails or epoxy
(see Quick Set Epoxy).
It is waterproof and weather resistant so it can
be used inside or outside. This monitor is direct reading to an accuracy
of one millimeter for horizontal or vertical movement. The Avongard Crack
Monitor consists of two overlapping acrylic plates. One plate is white
with a black millimeter grid, while the other is transparent with red
crosshairs centered over the grid. Once the Crack Monitor is in position
across a crack, the crosshairs shift vertically or horizontally on the grid
if movement occurs. Included is a crack
progress chart
for marking the position of the crossed cursor on site, and for engineering
evaluation later. |
