The five steps to a successful monitoring project

Structural and environmental monitoring provides essential data to understand the impact of demolition, excavation, tunnelling, construction or heavy groundwork on nearby buildings and assets, as well as the local environment – both above and below ground.

Our specialist teams in our offices across the UK have years of experience designing, specifying, installing and carrying out monitoring programmes on buildings, from new builds to heritage properties, commercial, retail and leisure buildings, as well as major structures including bridges, viaducts, sea defences and retaining walls.
