Impact
Showed how different areas of the retaining wall responded during nearby blasting, helping the team focus its evaluation.
Challenge
Blasting near Thayer Road created a need to characterize the stone retaining wall’s dynamic behavior.
STRAAM approach
STRAAM measured the wall using multiple horizontal and vertical arrays during a campaign described for September 14–15.
Result
The measurements showed that response differed from location to location, helping the project team understand how the wall reacted to nearby blasting.
