Niricson Software Inc.

Purpose

The proposed project is to implement Niricson’s data collection technology at a Pilot-scale to detect and quantify subsurface damage on vertical walls of a hydro dam structure owned and operated by the British Columbia Hydro Authority. The data collection and processing in-terms of acoustic signatures at multiple locations are proposed. The outcome of the project is in terms of a subsurface damage map. Successful implementation of this technology will lead to accurate assessments of spillway side walls while saving time and cost for the inspections.
