Rock blasting is occurring more often these days in urban areas and entails considerable risk to surrounding buildings. Computers, telephone switches, optical data communication equipment and GSM base stations could also be damaged by vibrations caused by blasting.

Examples of situations where vibration monitoring is required:

• Foundations of buildings
• Road and railway construction
• Pipe laying in mountains (trenches)
• Tunnels and caverns near existing structures
• Rock quarries (pit mines)
• Mining

The INFRA system can easily measure both vibrations and air shock waves according to current standards.
