Abstract

The construction of the I-93 Central Artery Tunnel beneath the Federal Reserve Plaza in Boston, MA, requires the use of structural, geotechnical and seismic/vibration sensors. The sensors are being used to monitor the tunnel construction to ensure that it does not damage the bank's structure and highly sensitive equipment. The structural and geotechnical monitoring is being provided by Construction Technology Laboratories Inc, who is also the designer and contractor of the project.
