Labs use 'soil compression' testers to study how soil reacts to different loads in embankments and soil structures.

To enhance the longevity and safety of bridges and similar structures, civil engineering firms routinely test steel and concrete beams in laboratories. This necessitates the need for solutions to provide quick and accurate measurements

Displacement sensors monitor crop growth and correlate with water, light, pollution, and soil quality. The compact system doesn't affect plants and classifies them by soil type. Engineers developed a device to attach LVDT sensors directly to crops for field tests, connected via GPRS for safety and efficiency.

In the automotive and electronics industries, important machine components are continuing to shrink, demanding high accuracy and resolution from sensors. However, issues such as greasy surfaces or excessively high accuracy requirements can make non-contact methods insufficient.

For applications involving concrete used in bridges and overpasses, laboratories sometimes measure the creep of concrete material. This involves taking a sample of concrete subjected to stress, then measuring how far it stretches before failure. These testing devices often require a load sensor, as well as a high-precision sensor to measure the distance of elongation.
