Extensometer 1 chainage 0+038.55, level 1433 on the downstream side
Extensometer 2 chainage 0+038.55, level 1439, central vault
Extensometer 3 chainage 0+038.55, level 1433, on the upstream side
Extensometer 4 chainage 0+038.55, level 1423.50, upstream
Extensometer 5 chainage 0+038.55, level 1423.50, downstream
Cell 1 chainage 0+038.55, level 1433, downstream
Cell 2 chainage 0+038.55, level 1439, central vault
Cell 3 chainage 0+038.55, level 1433, upstream
Cell 4 chainage 0+038.55, level 1423.50, upstream
Cell 5 chainage 0+038.55, level 1423.50, downstream
Convergence 1 chainage 0+038.55, level 1433, section 1

Jorge Gonza: 3:37pm Oct 12, 2005: OK, BUT... - OK, Gerardo, but I'm looking for the Spanish translation of such an expression as "chainage 0+024.50". I know there must be a Geology expert somewhere over there...Thx anyway :)
