Site Identification of the GNSS Monument Site Name : PRD3 CACS-CGS Four Character ID : PRD3 Monument Inscription : M146002 IERS DOMES Number : 40124M003 CDP Number : Monument Description : 17 cm diameter steel cylinder Height of the Monument : 1.90 (m) Monument Foundation : Bedrock Foundation Depth : 15.60 (m) Marker Description : Welded steel cap with a centered 5/8 inch bolt Date Installed : 2014-07-09T18:00Z Geologic Characteristic : 6 m Quaternary tills overlaying Paleozoic sedimentary rock Bedrock Type : Sedimentary Bedrock Condition : Fracture Spacing : Fault zones nearby : Distance/activity : Additional Information : The GNSS reference mark consists of a 0.170 m : diameter steel cylinder, 1.90 m high above : ground, drilled through approximately 6 m of : Quaternary till deposits and 10 m of : Paleozoic sedimentary rock and, cemented in : place. The top of the monument is fitted : with a 0.18 m diameter stainless steel cap : welded to the cylinder and fitted with a : centered 5/8 inch bolt. The top of the : stainless steel cap serves as the ARP and is : fitted with a 5 cm centering spacer. A PVC : pipe was placed around the cylinder and filled : with 10 mm washed rock for protection from : heat expansion. 2.
