The system of monitoring structural integrity allows performing comprehensive quantitative evaluation of structures regarding expected performance of structures (accessibility, safety, durability, use) and developing strategies for detection of damage. The analysis and use of structural integrity monitoring data play a significant role in preventing damage and collapse of the structure during construction activities.
Instant and One-time monitoring incorporate:
- Operational modal analysis (OMA),
- Detection the structural conditions of existing structures,
- Design control.
Long-term monitoring incorporate :
- Control and routine monitoring of cracks in buildings,
- Displacement control (expansion joints, bearings, dampers, insulation, etc.),
- Monitoring weak and strong ground motion,
- Forced vibration analysis and design control after small or medium sized earthquakes,
- Regular reports on condition of the structure.
OTS Eng & Consuntancy Company collaborates with leading experts in the field of building integrity monitoring. We provide services of instant and long-term monitoring and analysis of structural integrity targeted on prevention of damage and collapse of structures during construction works, survey of all types of structures subject to strengthening and revision of the design and implementation of the project according to the design. We have a significant advantage provided by the knowledge and the work experience of our experts who specialize on detection of damage in historical structures and producing solutions for elimination of such damage.
Our experts offer following services and knowledge in:
• Analysis of the data for generating mathematical model of the structure
• Analysis of updated data received during construction activities out of the monitoring system.
• Follow-up on implementation in line with analyzed instant data
• Making necessary design revisions in line with the building integrity system data, producing necessary solutions according to alarm levels with rapid reactions.
