Hydraulic components used in building installations often present problems such as leakages, producing noises in the environment, safety risks to users and excessive water consumption. IPT checks devices used in hydraulic water and sewage installations such as taps, toilet bowls, siphons, pipes, etc. to see if their technical performance is Read more…
Geophysical methods consists of a set of investigative tools applied especially to the study of shallow submerged areas (coastal areas, rivers, lakes and reservoirs) considering the natural inaccessibility of these environments to conventional investigative methods. IPT uses mainly seismic methods called echo-sounding (double frequency), sonography (100 and 500 kHz) and Read more…
Dam maintenance and structural safety are fundamental for energy and sewage companies responsible for these important civil engineering works. These processes can also be optimized using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) tools. IPT develops web-based systems for dam management and safety analysis, which allow safety situations to be analyzed by Read more…
The occurrence of geological and geotechnical processes (landslides, erosion, washout, silting, flooding, collapse and subsidence) affect practically all Brazilian regions, in both urban and rural areas and at enterprises. These processes may lead to loss of human life, as well as the evident economic and environmental damages. IPT has a Read more…
IPT is equipped to develop structural intervention projects in geological and geotechnical risk areas. Such interventions aim to eliminate identified risks by means of specific engineering works, such as slopes stabilization, drainage systems, surface protection, types of housing better suited to the terrain, etc. In addition to these direct actions, Read more…
Groundwater is an excellent alternative source for small communities located in rural areas of states and municipalities, or even in urban centers or built-up areas. Large cities such as Ribeirão Preto and São José do Rio Preto, in the interior of the state of São Paulo, use this resource to Read more…
