Structural and Environmental Monitoring

Overview

MK Surveys offer professional Structural & Environmental Monitoring services, providing both automated and manual monitoring solutions and analysis to help manage potentially hazardous environments, buildings and structures. These services are crucial for detecting potential issues promptly and ensuring the safety of all personnel and built assets on site.

Our real-time solutions provide critical insights into structural movement and environmental conditions – supporting safe operations and early issue detection across all project phases.

We understand that every structural monitoring and environmental monitoring project is unique which is why our in-house experts listen to your project requirements. After a detailed consultation process we will recommend the most suited monitoring solution. We utilise the most advanced sensor technology to ensure we are able to support you throughout the entire life of your project.

Monitoring solutions we offer:

• Deformation monitoring The built-environment monitored for movement in real-time using automated sensors and solutions or via a manual monitoring survey, ensuring safety and compliance through every project phase.
• Structural health monitoring Buildings and structures monitored in real-time, supporting safe operations and early issue detection across all project phases, from construction through to long-term asset management.
• Crack monitoring Monitoring of structural cracks via manually read tell-tales or in real-time by automated solutions to identify early signs of degradation or stress.
• Precise levelling / Settlement monitoring Measuring vertical displacement using precise digital level instruments or settlement cells to investigate ground movement or structural settlement for long-term stability assessment.
• Rail / track geometry and monitoring Precise three dimensional measurement of rail track alignment and geometry with geodetic instruments or track trolley to maintain safety, comfort, and operational performance.
• Strain Monitoring Precise measurement of internal forces in structures to evaluate load performance and response, as well as stress behaviour, all in real-time using advanced sensors to provide reliable insights to support safety and performance verification.
• In-place Inclinometers For real-time monitoring of subsurface displacement in embankments, retaining walls, deep excavations, etc. to support safety, manage risk proactively, and make confident, data-driven decisions.
• Slope / Embankment Monitoring Solutions that provide precise, continuous measurement of ground movement and stability using advanced instrumentation to identify instability early, safeguard infrastructure, and maintain control.
• Piezometers Measuring groundwater pressure and pore water response, providing reliable data to support stability assessments and design validation. Monitor subsurface conditions with confidence.
• Noise, Dust & Vibration Monitoring Monitoring the environmental impact in real-time to meet regulatory and project requirements.
• Vibration Monitoring Real-time vibration insights and analysis relating to an asset, site, environment or activity, capable of alerting and notifying all relevant stakeholders.
• Noise and Dust Monitoring Monitoring the environmental impact of construction activities in real-time to meet regulatory and project requirements.
• Noise Impact Assessments & Predictions Evaluates and forecasts maintenance related noise for planning and mitigation strategies.
• Floor Flatness Surveys and Monitoring Providing precise measurements to verify levelness of concrete slabs using advanced laser scanning and digital level technology, delivering clear data for quality control and compliance.
• LiDAR & 3D Laser Scanning Capturing high resolution spatial data for accurate and comprehensive deformation analysis and change detection.
• Verticality Surveys Determining the verticality of structures by precise measurements for compliance and risk mitigation.
• Photographic & Videography Monitoring Provides visual records for change detection, documentation, and stakeholder reporting.
