RVT Environmental Monitoring division provides automated environmental monitoring and engineering services to the construction industry.
With a forward-thinking and progressive approach, we deliver expert advice and practical benefits to clients requiring complete and seamless monitoring solutions.
View Monitoring EquipmentMonitoring in construction involves the placement of sensors on or around buildings, infrastructure and construction sites in order to provide ongoing measurement of factors affecting their performance.
The measurements provided by these sensors gives a real-time picture of the environment or the condition of a structure. This data acts as an early indicator of potential problems during construction, or as a means to disprove any unfounded allegations, in order to avoid costly remedial work or litigation.
We supply and install monitoring equipment across a full range of construction and engineering settings, helping projects run smoothly, efficiently and cost effectively with real-time monitoring data.
We provide high quality construction and engineering monitoring solutions for the assessment of structures, environments, noise and vibrations.
Our multi-disciplined team of engineering experts have extensive knowledge in all aspects of monitoring.
We have a full set of structural and environmental monitoring solutions for any situation and all our monitoring packages are tailored to the requirements of each individual project.
Furthermore, our web portal allows customers to instantly access and analyse live data from any of the environmental or structural monitoring that we are undertaking.
System Planning & Design - Early engagement with our clients enables us to design your site a tailored monitoring solution.
Installation and Configuration - Our team will install and ensure accurate configuration of all monitoring equipment on site.
Data Configuration - Our web based reporting software is pre-configured for your site, based on a clear understanding of your monitoring requirements. Trigger levels will be configured to alert users to any breaches during monitoring.
Data Visualisation - Clients are able to view accurate, real-time measurements, displayed on graphs, schematics and 3D modelling.
Reporting - Templates are pre-set to enable quick and easy reporting of all monitoring data.
Machinery such as breakers, pneumatic tools, generators and demolition equipment can easily breach the maximum noise levels defined by the HSE and/ or local councils.
Site activities can also generate a lot of dust and vibration, especially when there is demolition work being undertaken.
Contractors therefore need to measure noise, dust and vibration levels to ensure that they are not negatively impacting on those living or working nearby
Monitoring noise, dust and vibrations levels is the only way to prove to local authorities that you are remaining within the specified limits.
Failure to prove that local authority restrictions/ regulatory requirements are being adhered to, could result in works being stopped until the contractor can prove that they have put adequate control measures in place.
Monitor - Identify the activities being undertaken and whether noise, dust or vibration could pose a risk to the individual or the wider environment.
Manage - The HSE define maximum exposure limits over 8 hours, therefore handheld spot checks are not always suitable. Implement a continuous monitoring system and receive instant message alerts if pre-set parameters are exceeded.
Mitigate - If readings are outside the upper limits, you need to install adequate control equipment, such as noise barriers or dust extraction units. RVT are always on hand to advise you which hazard control equipment will be most effective.
4 types of monitoring; Noise, Dust, Gas and Vibration
Many of our monitoring systems are cloud based, saving you time and hassle by enabling you to retrieve data remotely at any time
Ideal for monitoring gases in tunnels, dust levels in sensitive areas, noise in residential areas and more.
RVT's Monitex range is highly reliable, providing accurate readings as frequently as every second.
In addition to static units, RVT offer an easy-to-use hand held units for both dust and noise monitoring
RVT's gas monitors will sound a very loud alarm (95dBA) when you are approaching dangerous exposure limits as defined by COSHH regulations
RVT's noise monitors will quickly alert you by email or text, when noise levels reach a dangerous level; usually above 85dB
All RVT products are fully approved to European standards and hold third party certification
“I have been pushing for monitoring on site for a white but have held back due to cost but having this monitor on site made my life so much easier! We could now prove we were not going above acceptable noise levels should anyone enquire.”
