YieldPoint

YieldPoint Global geotechnical instrumentation company - rock mass and reinforcement behavior YieldPoint Inc.

was incorporated in 2001 as a geotechnical monitoring instrumentation company with the goal of designing and manufacturing a 'smarter' and more robust generation of geotechnical instruments. We used an digital architecture by embedding into every instrument a microcontroller with Flash memory. Digital Signal Processing allowed YieldPoint to begin manufacturing highly accurate instruments at low co

st. Following 15 years of incremental improvement, YieldPoint is now positioned to offer a digital product line that intersects with a major new idea: the Internet of Things (IoT), leveraging its benefits for better geotechnical monitoring purposes. Our efforts and inventiveness result in user-friendly geotechnical monitoring solutions with improved accuracy and reliability in even the harshest environments. Most recently we have adopted Distributed Optical Strain sensing technologies to create the highest resolution geotechnical instruments in the world. We are currently manufacturing probes with 10,000 strain measurements along a 10m length for applications in both mining and civil engineering. For the first time this technology is capable of monitoring shear failure, possibly the most prevalent failure mechanism in geomechanics. Our growing expertise in this field will result in fundamental research breakthroughs in the field of rock mechanics. We can now solve geotechnical monitoring problems that we couldn't have imagined existed 15 years ago.
