Monitoring + Measurement Overview
For an existing structure, the best way to quantify, qualify and validate performance is to study the structure itself.
RWDI has a full suite of monitoring and measurement capabilities for short term, long term and permanent installations.
Through discussion with one of RWDI’s experts, the best method of assessment can be selected.

Benefits
Early detection: Establishing a baseline of parameters and performing periodic inspections/monitoring allows for early detection of abnormal variations.
Confirm assumptions: Parameter verification can confirm that the design assumptions were correct, thus creating a baseline of parameters.
Follow-up verification: Confirms that parameters have not substantially changed.
Workable and effective solutions: Should abnormal findings arise through a monitoring program, RWDI can make recommendations and assist the team to find workable and effective solutions.
