Standard Tell-Tale Crack Monitor
The Standard Tell-Tale Crack Monitor is a simple and effective way to monitor cracks in concrete, brick, and other solid materials. It is used to determine if the crack is widening over time, and if so, how quickly. This can be important information for determining the need for repairs and maintenance.
What is a Tell-Tale?
A tell-tale is a small, flat device that is attached across a crack. It consists of two metal plates that are connected to each other by a thin wire. When the crack widens, the wire will stretch and break, indicating that the crack has widened.
How to Use a Tell-Tale Crack Monitor
To use a tell-tale crack monitor, simply attach it to the crack you want to monitor using the included adhesive pads. Make sure that the tell-tale is centered over the crack and that it is securely attached.
Once the tell-tale is in place, you can start monitoring the crack. Check the tell-tale regularly for any signs of movement. If the wire breaks, it means that the crack has widened and you should take action to repair it.
