Abstract:
The instrumentation developed provides unique tools for the study of stability of underground openings particularly where deformation measurements are required very close to a drilled or blasted opening and where extended periods of automatic data recording are needed. The Laser System employs a coarse and fine raster scanning concept to measure relative motion of passive targets. The course scan locates a target within a 1-in. square approximate field of view the fine scan locates the targets position within the 1-in. square. The concept, in theory, should have very good accuracy and repeatability but depends upon the capabilities of the instrument components. Details of the concept are contained in Appendix B.
