The world’s longest automatic deformation cable

June 2018

In the Gilhusbukta bay outside of Drammen, new land is established. The area is important for birds and fish. A filling and drainage method is deployed to allow for quick completion. The filling is precisely controlled, and Cautus Geo has installed what is perhaps the world’s longest automatic deformation cable at 330 meters with measurements taken every meter. Altogether, the SAAF system of nearly 1 kilometer measures settlement across the bay.
