Site Control & Monitoring
Establishing control networks and monitoring movement and deformation, protecting structures, the public and your programme on sensitive sites.
What it is
On sensitive sites, knowing whether something is moving, and by how much, is critical. We establish robust control networks and carry out precise movement and deformation monitoring of structures, ground and adjacent assets, with results reported against agreed trigger levels.
What’s involved
Control & baseline
A stable control network and baseline readings are established.
Monitoring regime
Targets and/or instruments are monitored at agreed intervals.
Analysis
Movements are analysed against trigger and alarm levels.
Reporting
Results are reported clearly, with alerts where thresholds are approached.
What you receive
- Established control / monitoring network
- Baseline and periodic monitoring data
- Movement analysis against triggers
- Trend graphs and reporting
- Alerts on threshold exceedance
Where it’s used
Excavation and basement works, demolition adjacent to existing structures, tunnelling, and structures of concern.
Standards & compliance
Monitoring designed around project-specific trigger, action and alarm levels, using calibrated precise instruments.
Common questions
The frequency is set by the project risk and method statement, from continuous automated monitoring to periodic manual visits.
