Abstract

A new method was developed to measure underground water level with high reliability. The principle of new method was to detect a change of a buoyant force according to change in water level of underground water measured by the use of a straingage load cell. Field test of the instrument was carried out in Cheju Island. The results were as follows; 1) The present study provided a possibility to develop a new underground water level meter. 2) This new instrument accomplished high reliability at field test in Cheju Island. 3) There is possibility of development of water level meter which measure various range of water level to detect a weight change of a buoyant forcd.
