Benefits Of Hiring A Seismograph

Whether you are a civil engineering company or a quarry that needs to measure ground vibration caused by blasting the benefits of hiring a Seismograph are numerous.

Cost-effectiveness: Hiring a seismograph can be more cost-effective than purchasing one outright, especially for companies that only need to use it for a limited period of time.
Access to the latest technology: Hiring a seismograph allows companies to access the latest technology without having to make a significant investment in equipment.
Flexibility: Hiring a seismograph provides companies with the flexibility to only use it when they need it, rather than having to maintain and store equipment when it is not in use.
Compliance with regulations: Hiring a seismograph can help companies comply with regulations that require the monitoring of ground vibration levels, ensuring the safety of their operations and the surrounding environment.
Expert support: Accudata not only offer seismograph hire but also provide expert support to help customers get the most out of their equipment, including training and technical assistance.
Easy to use: Seismographs are typically user-friendly and easy to operate, even for those without technical expertise, making them a convenient solution for companies looking to monitor ground vibration levels.

Overall, hiring a seismograph provides companies with a convenient and cost-effective solution for monitoring ground vibration levels and ensuring compliance with regulations.

What Is Ground Vibration Monitoring & Who Uses It?

Ground vibration monitors, or seismographs, are used to measure and record the ground movement caused by various sources such as construction, mining, and blasting operations. As a result, a number of industries can benefit from Accudata’s services, including:

Construction: Seismographs are used to monitor the impact of construction activities on the surrounding environment, ensuring that they are within safe limits.
Mining: In the mining industry, seismographs are used to monitor the stability of mines and to detect any changes in ground movement that could indicate a potential hazard.
Blasting: Seismographs are used in blasting operations to monitor the impact of explosions on the surrounding environment and ensure that they are within safe limits.
Environmental: Seismographs can also be used in environmental monitoring to detect changes in ground movement that may indicate changes in soil or water conditions.
Geotechnical Engineering: Geotechnical engineers use seismographs to assess the stability of slopes, embankments, and retaining structures, and to monitor ground movement during and after construction.

These are just a few examples of industries that can benefit from Accudata’s products.

Quarry Blast Monitoring

Our Seismographs are ideal for quarry managers who need to both measure and record vibration and/or air blast caused during blasting.

The GVM 10 Seismograph can be supplied with an air over pressure microphone which is perfect for measuring blasting in quarries.

A quarry manager can use a ground vibration monitor in several ways:

Monitoring blasting operations: Seismographs can be used to measure the ground movement caused by blasting operations and to ensure that the vibration levels are within safe limits.
Assessing the stability of the quarry: Seismographs can be used to monitor any changes in ground movement that may indicate instability in the quarry, allowing the manager to take appropriate action to mitigate any potential hazards.
Compliance with regulations: In many jurisdictions, quarry managers are required to monitor ground vibration levels and ensure that they are within the limits set by local regulations. Seismographs can be used to gather this data and provide evidence of compliance.

Regarding the records that a quarry manager is legally required to keep, it will depend on the specific regulations in their jurisdiction. In general, however, a quarry manager may be required to keep records of:

Ground vibration levels: This may include the date, time, and location of each measurement, as well as the vibration levels recorded by the seismograph.
Blasting operations: If the quarry manager is using seismographs to monitor blasting operations, they may be required to keep records of the type, size, and location of each blast, as well as the date and time of the blast.
Compliance with regulations: The quarry manager may be required to keep records that demonstrate their compliance with local regulations, including any permits or licenses required for the quarry.

It is important to note that the specific requirements for record-keeping will vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and the quarry manager should consult with local authorities to determine the specific requirements that apply to their operations.

Tax benefits of hiring your ground vibration monitor

Did you know that hiring equipment such as Seismographs is extremely tax efficient? The cost of hiring equipment is considered to be an external expense that is deductible from your company’s taxable profit.

All our Seismographs & Ground Vibration Monitors are dispatched fully calibrated and ready to use.

All of our seismographs are calibrated to traceable British Standards prior to delivery for sale or hire. We also include a calibration certificate with every instrument.
