Mt Whitestone
Mount Whitestone is located in the Lockyer Valley Region of South-East Queensland, with its summit approximately 530 meters above sea level.
Geotesta has been involved in setting up and maintaining a geotechnical instrumentation and remote monitoring system to track the stability of the slope in the area.
We assist the client with a comprehensive geotechnical instrumentation system that includes:
- A series of Vibrating Wire Piezometers for monitoring groundwater levels
- Biaxial In-Place Inclinometers for tracking ground deformation
- Weather Stations for measuring rainfall intensity
- Extensometers for monitoring slope movement
Additionally, a time-lapse CCTV camera has been installed to capture images of the slope and the adjoining road.
All monitoring data is captured and transmitted using a customized data logger system.
