Structures with a large mass (dams) are exposed to internal and external natural and man-made factors that negatively affect both structural elements and the entire infrastructure facility. The impact leads to the instability of the geometric parameters of the building object and the relative displacements of its parts. Monitoring and measuring the parameters of this movement over certain periods of time gives specialists a clear idea of the nature of the changes. The above study allowed the development of technical recommendations for conducting accurate studies of the structural deformation of dams and hydraulic flood protection systems. Standards for accuracy, procedures and quality control have been defined for monitoring movements in hydraulic structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
