Our revolutionary global structural monitoring solution, Build’Health, gives users the power to:
– Monitor the structural health of your building throughout its entire life cycle
– Quickly estimate the level of damage sustained by buildings after an event or incident (construction works, accident, earthquake)
– Optimize risk management during urban works
Monitoring Building's Structural Health
- The technology is based on worldwide expert research in building damage.
- Build’Health uses a global indicator of structural health: the dynamic signature.
- Similar to a medical examination, Build’Health takes the pulse of your structure and immediately detects any structural degradation.
Our Solution: Build'Health
- Build’Health can be applied manually and occasionally, for example, once a year.
- For sensitive structures, Build’Health can operate in automatic and continuous mode, transmitting alarms in case of degradation.
- Each building’s Build’Health measurement process takes less than an hour. The comparison of successive measurements permits the detection of any damage.
- In geographical areas of seismic activity, we can configure Build’Health in real-time/autonomous mode with a local display. After a tremor occurs, Build’Health immediately defines the level of building degradation and either authorizes or prohibits its ongoing use.
The Benefits
- Simple, global, non-destructive, and non-intrusive method.
- Reliable mathematical indicator, providing the global health status of the structure, independently from visual analysis.
- Establishes strategic information for the management of a property portfolio, building insurance, or real estate investment.
- Helps to analyze the conditions of safe access to buildings after an accident, fire, or earthquake.
- Helps with preventive measures and the analysis of the impact of works.
Applications
- Monitoring of a property portfolio by periodic measurements as part of an asset management strategy.
- Monitoring of aging or damage of sensitive structures, periodic or continuous measurements.
- Structural integrity check before/after an event (for example, passage of a convoy or works nearby).
Specific applications in geographical areas of seismic activity:
- High visibility (beacon) and digital warning signals to authorize or prohibit the return to a structure after a seismic event.
- Continuous monitoring.
- An autonomous system capable of operating offline (Telephone, 4G, etc.) and without a power supply (12-hour battery life).
- Display of accessibility in real-time and 10 minutes after any detected tremor.
