磁倾计经常用於测量土坝的水平位移。但是,将磁倾计装设在混凝土坝的廊道内用来记录混凝土坝的扭转,现已极少使用。测量混凝土坝水平位移的仪器,常常不是挂锤,就是倒转的铅锤。倒转的铅锤要深深地锚定在坝下的铅孔内,并通过其上端的浮子将其 Magnet tilt meter is often used to measure the horizontal displacement of earth dam. However, the installation of a magnetic tilt meter in a corridor of a concrete dam to record the torsion of a concrete dam is now rarely used. Instruments to measure the horizontal displacement of concrete dams are often not hammered or reversed plumb bobs. The inverted plumb bob must be deeply anchored in the lead hole under the dam and move it through its upper float
