At last month’s Earth Retention Conference, ER2010, there were many references to the second ER conference in 1990. One paper from that proceedings that garnered many mentions and was referenced by several at this year’s conference as a seminal paper was by Dr. G. Wayne Clough and Thomas D. O’Rourke entitled ‘Construction induced movement of insitu walls‘. I found it somewhat poetic that a recent issue of Geocomp’s newsletter described the monitoring of deformations of the temporary shoring for the Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). Geocomp performed the monitoring using multiple Leica automated motorized total stations (AMTS) with reflective prism targets along with their iSiteCentral software to ensure no deformation-induced damage to the adjacent historic library structure.
