FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 1) (First Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards after the draftfinalized by the Hydraulic Structures Instrumentation Sectional Committee had been approved by the WaterResources Division Council
To minimize cracking large straight gravity and arch gravity dams are made in blocks separated from eachother by transverse and longitudinal contraction joints To restore the dam to its monolithic state for integratedbehaviour contraction joints are grouted with cement grout Grouting of joints is done when the joints haveopened to maximum Measurement of joints movement during grouting operation will indicate how much groutshould be pumped into the joints
Measurements of joint movements subsequent to the completion of the grouting of contraction joints providesinformation regarding the behaviour of the grouted joints
Surface measurements and joint movements will be useful for watching shearing movement of joints Thesemeasurements can be done with mechanical strain gauges applied to gauge inserts However full reliance cannotbe placed on the surface measurements as all parts of joints do not open at the same time and not even the sameamount Internal joint movement may therefore also need to be measured Vibrating wires type jointmetersfor measurement of joint movement at the surface and in the interior of concrete and masonry dams are beingseparately covered
This standard has been published in two parts Part 2 of the standard covers foundation deformation measuringdevices
This standard was first published in 1982 This first revision is being taken up to incorporate the knowledgegained during the use of the standard In this revision reference clause has been added and some addition hasbeen made in the method of installation of resistance type jointmeter

Code of practice for selection splicinginstallation and providing protection tothe open ends of cables used forconnecting resistance type measuringdevices in concrete and masonry dams
3 MEASUREMENTS OF JOINTMOVEMENTS OF SURFACE BYDETACHABLE GAUGES
31 Prhciple and Construction
Measurements of joint movements at surface or at thelocations accessible from galleries are made bydetachable gauges
311 Whittemore Type Gauge
The gauge is a self-contained instrument consistingessentially of two frame members bounded togetherby two elastic hinges for parallel frictionless motion
One 450 conical contact point is attached to eachmember For taking measurements the conical pointsare inserted into the inserts fixed in the drilled holesdefining a predetermined gauge length The essentialfeatures of the instrument are shown in Fig 1A
NOTE mdash The gauge is available in two gauge lengths (254 mmand 508 mm) and appropriate gauge suitable for the givensituation should be used
312 Inserts
Inserts may be made of mild steel or stainless steel butstainless steel inserts are recommended though they
may be expensive The mild steel inserts also last wellwithout rusting if due care is taken such as cleaningand greasing Inserts of nylon or any other suitablematerial may also be used The insert shall haveconical depressions at the centre for providing line ofcontact with the conical points and a typical insert isshown in Fig lB
3121 The inserts are placed in such a position as toindicate opening and closing movements of the jointand any sliding movement of the adjacent block
NOTE mdash Adequate protective covers over each installation of
inserts may be provided to guard against damage due to misuse
32 Number Location and Layout
The inserts should be installed on the surface at pointscorresponding to the locations of jointmeters inside thedam These should also be fixed inside galleries acrossjoints where these are accessible and at pointscorresponding to the jointmeter locations
321 Where surface cracks are present and areconsidered capable of influencing the structuralintegrity of the dam inserts shall also be placed across
such cracks for observation of crack behaviour underimposed loadings
322 The arrangement for fixing the inserts across thejoint is shown in Fig 1 C and 1 D The arrangementshown in Fig 1C is preferable as it gives the width ofopening simply by the difference in readings

33 Method of Installation
After the concrete is well set holes should be drilledcarefully at specified locations The holes shall becleaned of all loose material The insert shall then beplaced in the holes and aligned so as to be normal to
the surface of concrete in which it is being fixed Thespace around the insert shall be backfilled withexpansive mortar Suitable gauges shall be used inaligning the axes of inserts and in getting the gaugelength accurately
34 Observations
The inserts shall be well cleaned for taking thereadings so that the instrument pins are placed inexactly the same position The detachable gauge shallbe placed into the inserts and the readings on the dialgauge shall be observed In order to correct thedetachable gauges for the effect of temperaturevaria~ions readings of the gauge shall be taken on a
standard unstressed invar bar placed in the immediatevicinity of observation station
341 A proforma for the record of observations isgiven in Annex A
35 Analysis of Data
Analysis of observed data in case of the instrument notcompensated for temperature correction is made asunder

Seating the gauge is one of the chief sources of errorApplication of excessive longitudinal force should beavoided for seating the points in the inserts Othersources of error are the dial indicator and temperaturechanges
4 MEASUREMENT OF INTERNAL JOINTMOVEMENTS BY JOINTMETERS
1 Jointmeters
Two kinds of jointmeters for internal joint movementmeasurements are in use
a) Unbended resistance type andb) Vibrating wire type
411 Unbended Resistance Type Joint meter(Curlson Type)
IS 10434 (Part 1) 2003
41011 Construction and principle
The meter is in the form of a long brass cylinder witha flange at one end and a threaded hub on the other tofit a tapped socket In practice the socket is embeddedin the concrete of a leading monolith to form theanchorage for the meter on one side of the contractionjoint to be measured The flange on the meter isengaged and held by the embedding concrete in thefollowing monolith on the opposite side of the jointInside the brass case a steel framework supportsceramic pulleys and a long single loop of steel wirewhich is held in tension by small coil springs A greaterpart of the displacement which the meter undergoes inuse is taken up by the springs (see Fig 2) The brasstube is completely filled with a corrosion resistant oilA separate sealing chamber is provided for terminating
the three rubber covered conductor cables that connectthe jointmeter to the terminal boxes in the galleries
The instrument is designed to take advantage of twoelectrical properties of steel wire namely resistancevaries directly with temperature and resistance variesdirectly with tension When the ends of the jointmeterare pulled apart by opening of a joint the outer orexpansion loop elongates and increases in tension andconsequently in resistance as well At the same timethe inner or contraction loop decreases in resistance asit shortens The ratio of the resistance of the expansion
loop divided by the resistance of the contraction loopis used as a measure of joint opening Temperature ismeasured by taking the sum of the resistances ofexpansion and contraction coils
Since there may be considerable shearing ormovement in contraction joints as adjacent blocks coolat different rates the jointmeter is designed towithstand a shearing movement of 25 mm by reducingthe frame section at the ends to serve as elastic hingesA flexible bellows forms the central section of the

jointmeter to take the longitudinal and shear motionsof the case without undue straining
Measurements of resistance ratio and resistance aremade by connecting the three conductor cables to thebinding posts of a standard wheatstone bridge circuittest set in specified order in accordance with themanufacturerrsquos instructions
42 Number and Location
421 Number of jointmeters required to be providedin any given dam will depend upon the dimensionsblock layout provision of transverse and longitudinaljoints or transverse joints only configuration of thefoundation profile presence of specially treatedfoundation features under the dam and the extent towhich measurements of joint behaviour would proveadequate in representing the joint movements for theentire structure
422 In the case of dams built in V-shaped canyonjointmeters should be installed in at least three blocksnamely one central block representing deepest andmaximum section of the dam and a block each in theabutment portions representing blocks built on steeplysloping abutments In other cases they maybe installedone in the overflow section and one in thenon-overflow section or any other representativeblock as may be decided At a given elevation the
jointmeters in each of these blocks should be installedat the centre of the transverse dimensions of themonoliths in the blocks and should be spaced about15 m vertically in the height of the longitudinal andtransverse contraction joints as the grouting lifts(zoning of joints by provision of metal seal) are limitedto about 15 m in height This spacing may be modifiedin the top portion of the joint if joint height does notpermit of 15 m spacing for the entire height
43 Method of Installation
431 Unbended Resistance TyeJoin[meter4311 Prior to the embedment of the jointmeterseach instrument should be thoroughly checked for themeter resistance as also for the lead resistance andthese should be entered in the proforma given inAnnex B The resistance ratios before splicing andafter splicing should also be recorded in the aboveproforma
4312 Jointmeters are supplied equipped with asocket which should be first embedded in the high
block The socket is further provided with a slottedplug in which two holes are drilled Procedure for theinstallation of jointmeter at a contraction joint consistsof the following steps
a) Nail the plug slotted side out to the woodenform at the jointmeter location This should be

out of the form or misuse it in any other wayas to cause misalignment As a precaution it isgood practice to run a few stay wires to theform to keep the socket in position and preventits misalignment The arrangement is shown inFig 3If it is considered that for the particular con-crete being used the force exerted by the nailsin the plug and ties is greater than the bondresistance on the socket to prevent pulling itout during form removal The anchor should
necessarily be provided in the case of masonrydamsIf the cable leads are to run in the block inwhich the socket is embedded recess shouldbe provided adjacent to the socket into whichnot less than 1 m of the cable should be coiled

Total resistance of meter as measured in the field With a 4-conductor cable the cell resistance is measured directly and WIScolumn may be left blank
Resistance of the white and black conductors as measured directly during the splicing operations Asan attemative a reasonablyaccurate value may be determined by subtracting the total resis tance of the contraction and expansion coils measured in seriesf rom the sum of the res is tances of the contraction and expansion coils measured separately
Resistance of meter excluding cable leads It is obtained by subtracting CO14 from co] 3 with 4-conductor cable the meterresistance is measured directly
Temperature of the meter obtained by subtracting (B) from the cell resistanceinCO15 multiplying the difference by (C) andadding the product to (A)The resistance mtio of the meter as measured with the test set
Total change in resis tance ratio(CO17) from a selected initial vatue when the joint is known to be closed Thisis usuatly takenat about 24 h after the concretemasonry has been placed Proper algebraic sign should be shown
Multiply values in COI8 by the correlated calibration constant (D) The algebraic signs of co] 8 we carried over into CO19positi values indicating an opening of the joint with respect to the initial position and vice-versa
NOTE mdash Since the magnitude of the thermal length changes of the meter and concretemasonry due to changes in temperature aresignificantly small relative to the joint movements being measured and the range of the meter no temperature correction is madeTemperature data is of general interes t and provides a means for detecting faulty operation of the measuring point

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 1) (First Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards after the draftfinalized by the Hydraulic Structures Instrumentation Sectional Committee had been approved by the WaterResources Division Council
To minimize cracking large straight gravity and arch gravity dams are made in blocks separated from eachother by transverse and longitudinal contraction joints To restore the dam to its monolithic state for integratedbehaviour contraction joints are grouted with cement grout Grouting of joints is done when the joints haveopened to maximum Measurement of joints movement during grouting operation will indicate how much groutshould be pumped into the joints
Measurements of joint movements subsequent to the completion of the grouting of contraction joints providesinformation regarding the behaviour of the grouted joints
Surface measurements and joint movements will be useful for watching shearing movement of joints Thesemeasurements can be done with mechanical strain gauges applied to gauge inserts However full reliance cannotbe placed on the surface measurements as all parts of joints do not open at the same time and not even the sameamount Internal joint movement may therefore also need to be measured Vibrating wires type jointmetersfor measurement of joint movement at the surface and in the interior of concrete and masonry dams are beingseparately covered
This standard has been published in two parts Part 2 of the standard covers foundation deformation measuringdevices
This standard was first published in 1982 This first revision is being taken up to incorporate the knowledgegained during the use of the standard In this revision reference clause has been added and some addition hasbeen made in the method of installation of resistance type jointmeter

3 MEASUREMENTS OF JOINTMOVEMENTS OF SURFACE BYDETACHABLE GAUGES
31 Prhciple and Construction
Measurements of joint movements at surface or at thelocations accessible from galleries are made bydetachable gauges
311 Whittemore Type Gauge
The gauge is a self-contained instrument consistingessentially of two frame members bounded togetherby two elastic hinges for parallel frictionless motion
One 450 conical contact point is attached to eachmember For taking measurements the conical pointsare inserted into the inserts fixed in the drilled holesdefining a predetermined gauge length The essentialfeatures of the instrument are shown in Fig 1A
NOTE mdash The gauge is available in two gauge lengths (254 mmand 508 mm) and appropriate gauge suitable for the givensituation should be used
312 Inserts
Inserts may be made of mild steel or stainless steel butstainless steel inserts are recommended though they
may be expensive The mild steel inserts also last wellwithout rusting if due care is taken such as cleaningand greasing Inserts of nylon or any other suitablematerial may also be used The insert shall haveconical depressions at the centre for providing line ofcontact with the conical points and a typical insert isshown in Fig lB
3121 The inserts are placed in such a position as toindicate opening and closing movements of the jointand any sliding movement of the adjacent block
NOTE mdash Adequate protective covers over each installation of
inserts may be provided to guard against damage due to misuse
32 Number Location and Layout
The inserts should be installed on the surface at pointscorresponding to the locations of jointmeters inside thedam These should also be fixed inside galleries acrossjoints where these are accessible and at pointscorresponding to the jointmeter locations
321 Where surface cracks are present and areconsidered capable of influencing the structuralintegrity of the dam inserts shall also be placed across
such cracks for observation of crack behaviour underimposed loadings
322 The arrangement for fixing the inserts across thejoint is shown in Fig 1 C and 1 D The arrangementshown in Fig 1C is preferable as it gives the width ofopening simply by the difference in readings

33 Method of Installation
After the concrete is well set holes should be drilledcarefully at specified locations The holes shall becleaned of all loose material The insert shall then beplaced in the holes and aligned so as to be normal to
the surface of concrete in which it is being fixed Thespace around the insert shall be backfilled withexpansive mortar Suitable gauges shall be used inaligning the axes of inserts and in getting the gaugelength accurately
34 Observations
The inserts shall be well cleaned for taking thereadings so that the instrument pins are placed inexactly the same position The detachable gauge shallbe placed into the inserts and the readings on the dialgauge shall be observed In order to correct thedetachable gauges for the effect of temperaturevaria~ions readings of the gauge shall be taken on a
standard unstressed invar bar placed in the immediatevicinity of observation station
341 A proforma for the record of observations isgiven in Annex A

4 MEASUREMENT OF INTERNAL JOINTMOVEMENTS BY JOINTMETERS
1 Jointmeters
Two kinds of jointmeters for internal joint movementmeasurements are in use
a) Unbended resistance type andb) Vibrating wire type
411 Unbended Resistance Type Joint meter(Curlson Type)
IS 10434 (Part 1) 2003
41011 Construction and principle
The meter is in the form of a long brass cylinder witha flange at one end and a threaded hub on the other tofit a tapped socket In practice the socket is embeddedin the concrete of a leading monolith to form theanchorage for the meter on one side of the contractionjoint to be measured The flange on the meter isengaged and held by the embedding concrete in thefollowing monolith on the opposite side of the jointInside the brass case a steel framework supportsceramic pulleys and a long single loop of steel wirewhich is held in tension by small coil springs A greaterpart of the displacement which the meter undergoes inuse is taken up by the springs (see Fig 2) The brasstube is completely filled with a corrosion resistant oilA separate sealing chamber is provided for terminating
the three rubber covered conductor cables that connectthe jointmeter to the terminal boxes in the galleries
The instrument is designed to take advantage of twoelectrical properties of steel wire namely resistancevaries directly with temperature and resistance variesdirectly with tension When the ends of the jointmeterare pulled apart by opening of a joint the outer orexpansion loop elongates and increases in tension andconsequently in resistance as well At the same timethe inner or contraction loop decreases in resistance asit shortens The ratio of the resistance of the expansion
loop divided by the resistance of the contraction loopis used as a measure of joint opening Temperature ismeasured by taking the sum of the resistances ofexpansion and contraction coils
Since there may be considerable shearing ormovement in contraction joints as adjacent blocks coolat different rates the jointmeter is designed towithstand a shearing movement of 25 mm by reducingthe frame section at the ends to serve as elastic hingesA flexible bellows forms the central section of the

jointmeter to take the longitudinal and shear motionsof the case without undue straining
Measurements of resistance ratio and resistance aremade by connecting the three conductor cables to thebinding posts of a standard wheatstone bridge circuittest set in specified order in accordance with themanufacturerrsquos instructions
42 Number and Location
421 Number of jointmeters required to be providedin any given dam will depend upon the dimensionsblock layout provision of transverse and longitudinaljoints or transverse joints only configuration of thefoundation profile presence of specially treatedfoundation features under the dam and the extent towhich measurements of joint behaviour would proveadequate in representing the joint movements for theentire structure
422 In the case of dams built in V-shaped canyonjointmeters should be installed in at least three blocksnamely one central block representing deepest andmaximum section of the dam and a block each in theabutment portions representing blocks built on steeplysloping abutments In other cases they maybe installedone in the overflow section and one in thenon-overflow section or any other representativeblock as may be decided At a given elevation the
jointmeters in each of these blocks should be installedat the centre of the transverse dimensions of themonoliths in the blocks and should be spaced about15 m vertically in the height of the longitudinal andtransverse contraction joints as the grouting lifts(zoning of joints by provision of metal seal) are limitedto about 15 m in height This spacing may be modifiedin the top portion of the joint if joint height does notpermit of 15 m spacing for the entire height
43 Method of Installation
431 Unbended Resistance TyeJoin[meter4311 Prior to the embedment of the jointmeterseach instrument should be thoroughly checked for themeter resistance as also for the lead resistance andthese should be entered in the proforma given inAnnex B The resistance ratios before splicing andafter splicing should also be recorded in the aboveproforma
4312 Jointmeters are supplied equipped with asocket which should be first embedded in the high
block The socket is further provided with a slottedplug in which two holes are drilled Procedure for theinstallation of jointmeter at a contraction joint consistsof the following steps
a) Nail the plug slotted side out to the woodenform at the jointmeter location This should be

not more than 15 cm below the top of the liftfor easy installationScrew the socket cm the plugWhen socket installation is complete careshould be taken by the workmen not to hangthings on the socket or use it as a step in getting
out of the form or misuse it in any other wayas to cause misalignment As a precaution it isgood practice to run a few stay wires to theform to keep the socket in position and preventits misalignment The arrangement is shown inFig 3If it is considered that for the particular con-crete being used the force exerted by the nailsin the plug and ties is greater than the bondresistance on the socket to prevent pulling itout during form removal The anchor should
necessarily be provided in the case of masonrydamsIf the cable leads are to run in the block inwhich the socket is embedded recess shouldbe provided adjacent to the socket into whichnot less than 1 m of the cable should be coiled

Total resistance of meter as measured in the field With a 4-conductor cable the cell resistance is measured directly and WIScolumn may be left blank
Resistance of the white and black conductors as measured directly during the splicing operations Asan attemative a reasonablyaccurate value may be determined by subtracting the total resis tance of the contraction and expansion coils measured in seriesf rom the sum of the res is tances of the contraction and expansion coils measured separately
Resistance of meter excluding cable leads It is obtained by subtracting CO14 from co] 3 with 4-conductor cable the meterresistance is measured directly
Temperature of the meter obtained by subtracting (B) from the cell resistanceinCO15 multiplying the difference by (C) andadding the product to (A)The resistance mtio of the meter as measured with the test set
Total change in resis tance ratio(CO17) from a selected initial vatue when the joint is known to be closed Thisis usuatly takenat about 24 h after the concretemasonry has been placed Proper algebraic sign should be shown
Multiply values in COI8 by the correlated calibration constant (D) The algebraic signs of co] 8 we carried over into CO19positi values indicating an opening of the joint with respect to the initial position and vice-versa
NOTE mdash Since the magnitude of the thermal length changes of the meter and concretemasonry due to changes in temperature aresignificantly small relative to the joint movements being measured and the range of the meter no temperature correction is madeTemperature data is of general interes t and provides a means for detecting faulty operation of the measuring point

4 MEASUREMENT OF INTERNAL JOINTMOVEMENTS BY JOINTMETERS

Two kinds of jointmeters for internal joint movementmeasurements are in use
a) Unbended resistance type andb) Vibrating wire type
411 Unbended Resistance Type Joint meter(Curlson Type)
IS 10434 (Part 1) 2003
41011 Construction and principle
The meter is in the form of a long brass cylinder witha flange at one end and a threaded hub on the other tofit a tapped socket In practice the socket is embeddedin the concrete of a leading monolith to form theanchorage for the meter on one side of the contractionjoint to be measured The flange on the meter isengaged and held by the embedding concrete in thefollowing monolith on the opposite side of the jointInside the brass case a steel framework supportsceramic pulleys and a long single loop of steel wirewhich is held in tension by small coil springs A greaterpart of the displacement which the meter undergoes inuse is taken up by the springs (see Fig 2) The brasstube is completely filled with a corrosion resistant oilA separate sealing chamber is provided for terminating
the three rubber covered conductor cables that connectthe jointmeter to the terminal boxes in the galleries
The instrument is designed to take advantage of twoelectrical properties of steel wire namely resistancevaries directly with temperature and resistance variesdirectly with tension When the ends of the jointmeterare pulled apart by opening of a joint the outer orexpansion loop elongates and increases in tension andconsequently in resistance as well At the same timethe inner or contraction loop decreases in resistance asit shortens The ratio of the resistance of the expansion
loop divided by the resistance of the contraction loopis used as a measure of joint opening Temperature ismeasured by taking the sum of the resistances ofexpansion and contraction coils
Since there may be considerable shearing ormovement in contraction joints as adjacent blocks coolat different rates the jointmeter is designed towithstand a shearing movement of 25 mm by reducingthe frame section at the ends to serve as elastic hingesA flexible bellows forms the central section of the

Measurements of resistance ratio and resistance aremade by connecting the three conductor cables to thebinding posts of a standard wheatstone bridge circuittest set in specified order in accordance with themanufacturerrsquos instructions
42 Number and Location
421 Number of jointmeters required to be providedin any given dam will depend upon the dimensionsblock layout provision of transverse and longitudinaljoints or transverse joints only configuration of thefoundation profile presence of specially treatedfoundation features under the dam and the extent towhich measurements of joint behaviour would proveadequate in representing the joint movements for theentire structure
422 In the case of dams built in V-shaped canyonjointmeters should be installed in at least three blocksnamely one central block representing deepest andmaximum section of the dam and a block each in theabutment portions representing blocks built on steeplysloping abutments In other cases they maybe installedone in the overflow section and one in thenon-overflow section or any other representativeblock as may be decided At a given elevation the
jointmeters in each of these blocks should be installedat the centre of the transverse dimensions of themonoliths in the blocks and should be spaced about15 m vertically in the height of the longitudinal andtransverse contraction joints as the grouting lifts(zoning of joints by provision of metal seal) are limitedto about 15 m in height This spacing may be modifiedin the top portion of the joint if joint height does notpermit of 15 m spacing for the entire height
43 Method of Installation

Total resistance of meter as measured in the field With a 4-conductor cable the cell resistance is measured directly and WIScolumn may be left blank
Resistance of the white and black conductors as measured directly during the splicing operations Asan attemative a reasonablyaccurate value may be determined by subtracting the total resis tance of the contraction and expansion coils measured in seriesf rom the sum of the res is tances of the contraction and expansion coils measured separately
Resistance of meter excluding cable leads It is obtained by subtracting CO14 from co] 3 with 4-conductor cable the meterresistance is measured directly
Temperature of the meter obtained by subtracting (B) from the cell resistanceinCO15 multiplying the difference by (C) andadding the product to (A)The resistance mtio of the meter as measured with the test set
Total change in resis tance ratio(CO17) from a selected initial vatue when the joint is known to be closed Thisis usuatly takenat about 24 h after the concretemasonry has been placed Proper algebraic sign should be shown
Multiply values in COI8 by the correlated calibration constant (D) The algebraic signs of co] 8 we carried over into CO19positi values indicating an opening of the joint with respect to the initial position and vice-versa
NOTE mdash Since the magnitude of the thermal length changes of the meter and concretemasonry due to changes in temperature aresignificantly small relative to the joint movements being measured and the range of the meter no temperature correction is madeTemperature data is of general interes t and provides a means for detecting faulty operation of the measuring point

Total resistance of meter as measured in the field With a 4-conductor cable the cell resistance is measured directly and WIScolumn may be left blank
Resistance of the white and black conductors as measured directly during the splicing operations Asan attemative a reasonablyaccurate value may be determined by subtracting the total resis tance of the contraction and expansion coils measured in seriesf rom the sum of the res is tances of the contraction and expansion coils measured separately
Resistance of meter excluding cable leads It is obtained by subtracting CO14 from co] 3 with 4-conductor cable the meterresistance is measured directly
Temperature of the meter obtained by subtracting (B) from the cell resistanceinCO15 multiplying the difference by (C) andadding the product to (A)The resistance mtio of the meter as measured with the test set
Total change in resis tance ratio(CO17) from a selected initial vatue when the joint is known to be closed Thisis usuatly takenat about 24 h after the concretemasonry has been placed Proper algebraic sign should be shown
Multiply values in COI8 by the correlated calibration constant (D) The algebraic signs of co] 8 we carried over into CO19positi values indicating an opening of the joint with respect to the initial position and vice-versa
NOTE mdash Since the magnitude of the thermal length changes of the meter and concretemasonry due to changes in temperature aresignificantly small relative to the joint movements being measured and the range of the meter no temperature correction is madeTemperature data is of general interes t and provides a means for detecting faulty operation of the measuring point

4 MEASUREMENT OF INTERNAL JOINTMOVEMENTS BY JOINTMETERS
1 Jointmeters
Two kinds of jointmeters for internal joint movementmeasurements are in use
a) Unbended resistance type andb) Vibrating wire type
411 Unbended Resistance Type Joint meter(Curlson Type)
IS 10434 (Part 1) 2003
41011 Construction and principle
The meter is in the form of a long brass cylinder witha flange at one end and a threaded hub on the other tofit a tapped socket In practice the socket is embeddedin the concrete of a leading monolith to form theanchorage for the meter on one side of the contractionjoint to be measured The flange on the meter isengaged and held by the embedding concrete in thefollowing monolith on the opposite side of the jointInside the brass case a steel framework supportsceramic pulleys and a long single loop of steel wirewhich is held in tension by small coil springs A greaterpart of the displacement which the meter undergoes inuse is taken up by the springs (see Fig 2) The brasstube is completely filled with a corrosion resistant oilA separate sealing chamber is provided for terminating
the three rubber covered conductor cables that connectthe jointmeter to the terminal boxes in the galleries
The instrument is designed to take advantage of twoelectrical properties of steel wire namely resistancevaries directly with temperature and resistance variesdirectly with tension When the ends of the jointmeterare pulled apart by opening of a joint the outer orexpansion loop elongates and increases in tension andconsequently in resistance as well At the same timethe inner or contraction loop decreases in resistance asit shortens The ratio of the resistance of the expansion
loop divided by the resistance of the contraction loopis used as a measure of joint opening Temperature ismeasured by taking the sum of the resistances ofexpansion and contraction coils
Since there may be considerable shearing ormovement in contraction joints as adjacent blocks coolat different rates the jointmeter is designed towithstand a shearing movement of 25 mm by reducingthe frame section at the ends to serve as elastic hingesA flexible bellows forms the central section of the

jointmeter to take the longitudinal and shear motionsof the case without undue straining
Measurements of resistance ratio and resistance aremade by connecting the three conductor cables to thebinding posts of a standard wheatstone bridge circuittest set in specified order in accordance with themanufacturerrsquos instructions
42 Number and Location
421 Number of jointmeters required to be providedin any given dam will depend upon the dimensionsblock layout provision of transverse and longitudinaljoints or transverse joints only configuration of thefoundation profile presence of specially treatedfoundation features under the dam and the extent towhich measurements of joint behaviour would proveadequate in representing the joint movements for theentire structure
422 In the case of dams built in V-shaped canyonjointmeters should be installed in at least three blocksnamely one central block representing deepest andmaximum section of the dam and a block each in theabutment portions representing blocks built on steeplysloping abutments In other cases they maybe installedone in the overflow section and one in thenon-overflow section or any other representativeblock as may be decided At a given elevation the
jointmeters in each of these blocks should be installedat the centre of the transverse dimensions of themonoliths in the blocks and should be spaced about15 m vertically in the height of the longitudinal andtransverse contraction joints as the grouting lifts(zoning of joints by provision of metal seal) are limitedto about 15 m in height This spacing may be modifiedin the top portion of the joint if joint height does notpermit of 15 m spacing for the entire height
43 Method of Installation
431 Unbended Resistance TyeJoin[meter4311 Prior to the embedment of the jointmeterseach instrument should be thoroughly checked for themeter resistance as also for the lead resistance andthese should be entered in the proforma given inAnnex B The resistance ratios before splicing andafter splicing should also be recorded in the aboveproforma
4312 Jointmeters are supplied equipped with asocket which should be first embedded in the high
block The socket is further provided with a slottedplug in which two holes are drilled Procedure for theinstallation of jointmeter at a contraction joint consistsof the following steps
a) Nail the plug slotted side out to the woodenform at the jointmeter location This should be

out of the form or misuse it in any other wayas to cause misalignment As a precaution it isgood practice to run a few stay wires to theform to keep the socket in position and preventits misalignment The arrangement is shown inFig 3If it is considered that for the particular con-crete being used the force exerted by the nailsin the plug and ties is greater than the bondresistance on the socket to prevent pulling itout during form removal The anchor should
necessarily be provided in the case of masonrydamsIf the cable leads are to run in the block inwhich the socket is embedded recess shouldbe provided adjacent to the socket into whichnot less than 1 m of the cable should be coiled

Total resistance of meter as measured in the field With a 4-conductor cable the cell resistance is measured directly and WIScolumn may be left blank
Resistance of the white and black conductors as measured directly during the splicing operations Asan attemative a reasonablyaccurate value may be determined by subtracting the total resis tance of the contraction and expansion coils measured in seriesf rom the sum of the res is tances of the contraction and expansion coils measured separately
Resistance of meter excluding cable leads It is obtained by subtracting CO14 from co] 3 with 4-conductor cable the meterresistance is measured directly
Temperature of the meter obtained by subtracting (B) from the cell resistanceinCO15 multiplying the difference by (C) andadding the product to (A)The resistance mtio of the meter as measured with the test set
Total change in resis tance ratio(CO17) from a selected initial vatue when the joint is known to be closed Thisis usuatly takenat about 24 h after the concretemasonry has been placed Proper algebraic sign should be shown
Multiply values in COI8 by the correlated calibration constant (D) The algebraic signs of co] 8 we carried over into CO19positi values indicating an opening of the joint with respect to the initial position and vice-versa
NOTE mdash Since the magnitude of the thermal length changes of the meter and concretemasonry due to changes in temperature aresignificantly small relative to the joint movements being measured and the range of the meter no temperature correction is madeTemperature data is of general interes t and provides a means for detecting faulty operation of the measuring point

jointmeter to take the longitudinal and shear motionsof the case without undue straining
Measurements of resistance ratio and resistance aremade by connecting the three conductor cables to thebinding posts of a standard wheatstone bridge circuittest set in specified order in accordance with themanufacturerrsquos instructions
42 Number and Location
421 Number of jointmeters required to be providedin any given dam will depend upon the dimensionsblock layout provision of transverse and longitudinaljoints or transverse joints only configuration of thefoundation profile presence of specially treatedfoundation features under the dam and the extent towhich measurements of joint behaviour would proveadequate in representing the joint movements for theentire structure
422 In the case of dams built in V-shaped canyonjointmeters should be installed in at least three blocksnamely one central block representing deepest andmaximum section of the dam and a block each in theabutment portions representing blocks built on steeplysloping abutments In other cases they maybe installedone in the overflow section and one in thenon-overflow section or any other representativeblock as may be decided At a given elevation the
jointmeters in each of these blocks should be installedat the centre of the transverse dimensions of themonoliths in the blocks and should be spaced about15 m vertically in the height of the longitudinal andtransverse contraction joints as the grouting lifts(zoning of joints by provision of metal seal) are limitedto about 15 m in height This spacing may be modifiedin the top portion of the joint if joint height does notpermit of 15 m spacing for the entire height
43 Method of Installation
431 Unbended Resistance TyeJoin[meter4311 Prior to the embedment of the jointmeterseach instrument should be thoroughly checked for themeter resistance as also for the lead resistance andthese should be entered in the proforma given inAnnex B The resistance ratios before splicing andafter splicing should also be recorded in the aboveproforma
4312 Jointmeters are supplied equipped with asocket which should be first embedded in the high
block The socket is further provided with a slottedplug in which two holes are drilled Procedure for theinstallation of jointmeter at a contraction joint consistsof the following steps
a) Nail the plug slotted side out to the woodenform at the jointmeter location This should be

d)
e)
not more than 15 cm below the top of the liftfor easy installationScrew the socket cm the plugWhen socket installation is complete careshould be taken by the workmen not to hangthings on the socket or use it as a step in getting
out of the form or misuse it in any other wayas to cause misalignment As a precaution it isgood practice to run a few stay wires to theform to keep the socket in position and preventits misalignment The arrangement is shown inFig 3If it is considered that for the particular con-crete being used the force exerted by the nailsin the plug and ties is greater than the bondresistance on the socket to prevent pulling itout during form removal The anchor should
necessarily be provided in the case of masonrydamsIf the cable leads are to run in the block inwhich the socket is embedded recess shouldbe provided adjacent to the socket into whichnot less than 1 m of the cable should be coiled
4313 After the low block reaches the elevation inwhich the jointmeter itself is to be embedded thefollowing procedure shall be followed
a)
b)c)
d)

g)
After the form is removed remove the plug
fill greased cloth and screw in the hexagonalheaded plugComplete the lift at the jointmeter locationDig back at the location until the plug is un-covered leaving a small trench about 30 cm x30 cmBack out the plug and greased cloth and insertthe jointmeter screwing it uprigh~While fixing the moveable end of jointmeterallowance may be given for the meter torespond for expansion and contraction that is
in both the directionsTie the jointmeter cable lead out of the pour (ifcable is embedded in the high block) and back-fill with 75 mm maximum concrete hand pud-dling the concrete around the meten andNext day splice the meter cable and the cableextension may preferably be done at the timeof embedment to allow observation to bemade
