Real-time measurement of load and strain to guide construction and assess structural behavior
D.W. Kozera, Inc. provides structural monitoring services using load cells and strain gauges to measure axial forces, monitor stress responses, and evaluate system performance during construction and testing. These monitoring systems help project teams assess whether temporary or permanent structural elements are behaving as intended, particularly in support of excavation systems, load testing programs, and structural retrofit or repair operations.
Whether you’re monitoring tieback loads, tracking strain in temporary bracing, retrofitting existing structural beams, or measuring stress transfer in pile caps and mat foundations, our field specialists install and manage systems that generate timely, actionable data. These insights support safety evaluations, track performance against design expectations, and inform field adjustments helping reduce the risk of unanticipated movement or overstress.
Our structural monitoring solutions are scalable and tailored to site-specific needs, from high-resolution, short-term construction monitoring to long-term instrumentation programs.
