How Load Cells Are Transforming the Construction Industry
Interface force measurement solutions are used for all types of construction applications from bridge and high-rise building projects, to foundation load tests and structural monitoring. Our load cells and instrumentation are used in crane and heavy lifting operations, material testing and equipment calibration.

Rigging Engineers Choose Interface Measurement Solutions
Interface supports rigging engineers who design, plan, and oversee the rigging of heavy loads by providing high accuracy measurement solutions. The use of load cells to measure the weight of heavy loads, such as cranes, ships, rockets, theater equipment and machinery is on the rise. Rigging engineers use the data from load cells, load pins, load shackles, and tension links to ensure that the loads are not overloaded and that the rigging systems are properly designed for each use case. This often requires pairing the high accuracy sensor with instrumentation, and for versatility wireless telemetry systems are useful for rigging engineers.
