Ground movement is a critical concern in Singapore, where deep excavation, piling, tunnelling, and large-scale infrastructure projects take place close to existing structures. To ensure safety and regulatory compliance, Ground Settlement Marker Monitoring (GSM) is an essential part of Geotechnical Instrumentation & Monitoring Services.
Pro-Tec Geosystems Pte Ltd offers professional Ground Settlement Monitoring, Settlement Monitoring System Singapore, and Geotechnical Monitoring Services designed to track soil displacement with precision and reliability.
A Ground Settlement Marker (GSM), also known as a Settlement Marker, is a geotechnical monitoring tool used to measure vertical ground movement-either settlement or heave-over time. Installed on the soil surface or within soft ground, the markers act as permanent surveying reference points.
GSMs are widely used in Settlement Monitoring System & Survey in Singapore and form a crucial part of Movement and Settlement Monitoring programs where soil stability is critical.
Basements, underpasses, and underground structures where soil movement can impact adjacent properties.
Ground displacement is common during tunnelling - GSMs help maintain compliance and ensure safety.
Monitors how the ground responds to heavy loading and vibration.
Tracks stability during earth-retaining and shoring activities.
Critical for projects located in congested or sensitive urban zones.
Ensures structural integrity through precise monitoring trends.
Detects long-term settlement caused by added soil load.
Using stainless steel pegs, rods, or settlement plates, our team installs settlement markers at pre-approved locations. Placement aligns with geotechnical drawings and consultant requirements.
Our surveyors use high-precision levelling instruments or total stations to take readings at defined intervals. This ensures accurate Ground Level Monitoring and long-term trend analysis.
Our monitoring team is experienced in Singapore’s geotechnical landscape and understands regulatory needs thoroughly.
We use calibrated equipment to ensure consistent and precise Settlement Monitoring .
Our Survey & Instrumentation Services can be tailored for daily, weekly, or project - specific requirements.
