Abstract

The multiple deformation sensor system for small diameter borehole is required for the long term monitoring of deformation of rock mass of high-level radioactive waste disposal site. The conventional electric monitoring systems are difficult to apply for a long term monitoring in many cases because of the sensor failure caused by lowering of insulation or other problems and only available for the large borehole and for 6 or less measurement sections. The Borehole Multiple Deformation Sensor System was developed based on the FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) sensor technology that is expected to have longer life time than electric systems. The developed system can be set in a 66 mm diameter borehole and available for 9 or more measurement sections that can be hardly achieved by electric systems. The sensor system is applying for the monitoring of ground deformation in the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory in Japan.
