Encardio-Rite

On May 10, 2006, Encardio-rite was awarded subcontract for supply/installation of instrumentation and for monitoring data of Red Line at Dubai Metro Project. The Dubai Metro Project is a World class fully automated driverless railway system being commissioned by Dubai Municipality at a total cost of US$ 3.39 billion.

The construction work of the project is being carried out by DURL (Dubai Rail Link), a Consortium of four companies comprising of Obayashi Corporation (Japan), Kajima Corporation (Japan) Mitsubishi Corporation (Japan) and Yapi Merkezi (Turkey).

Encardio-rite is completely responsible for the geotechnical and structural engineering instrumentation of the underground tunnel sections and underground stations on a turnkey basis. The services include supply, installation and commissioning of the surface and subsurface instrumentation required for the project. Drilling of boreholes for installation of the subsurface instruments is in the scope of work of Encardio-rite. Responsibility also includes surface surveying with total stations and auto levels and monitoring of data from all the installed instruments.

Encardio-rite has deployed a competent team of more than 25 technical personnel at the Dubai Metro Project site to handle the above works.

The range of instrumentation used at Dubai Metro Project includes inclinometer in D-wall and ground, standpipe, casagrande piezometer, magnetic extensometer, tilt meter, crack meter, tape extensometer, spot weldable strain gages, compression type load cells, read-out units, surface settlement markers, pavement settlement markers, building settlement markers, reflex targets and datum bench mark, etc.

Encardio-rite's experience in instrumenting Metros is unparallel amongst organizations in the field of geotechnical instrumentation. Earlier, Encardio-rite had instrumented on a turnkey basis the underground portion of the Delhi Metro Project consisting of around 12 km of tunneling and 11 underground stations. Encardio-rite deployed a team of 18 technical personnel at site for a period of around two years for instrumentation and data monitoring. The Metro passes through crowded areas, some with buildings more than 100 years old, underneath main railway lines and near monuments of historical importance. We take pride in our contribution towards the project being completed six months ahead of schedule observing all safety norms and meeting the specifications as laid down in the project documents.

Encardio-rite has supplied instrumentation for several other Metros around the world including those at Hong Kong, Singapore, Ankara and Athens etc.
