Wave Dynamics MonitoringWave Dynamics Monitoring
Wave Dynamics Monitoring provides noise, vibration, dust, air quality and geotechnical monitoring for construction, infrastructure and industrial sites across Ireland and the UK.
What Does Wave Dynamics Monitoring Do?
Wave Dynamics Monitoring designs, installs, services and reports on monitoring equipment so that construction and operational sites stay within their planning conditions and agreed trigger levels.
Our field team deploys and maintains the equipment. Our consultants review the data and report it against your limits.
Monitoring Services
- Noise monitoring: attended, unattended and real-time construction and environmental noise monitoring.
- Vibration monitoring: ground and structural vibration monitoring with trigger alerts.
- Dust and air quality monitoring: PM10, PM2.5 and dust monitoring on construction and industrial sites.
- Crack monitoring: crack gauges and sensors on neighbouring and existing structures.
- Inclination and tilt monitoring: tilt sensors on structures, retaining walls and excavations.
- Ground movement monitoring: settlement and ground movement monitoring during works.
- Water pressure monitoring: piezometers and groundwater level monitoring.
- Radon monitoring and risk assessment: radon measurement for workplaces, schools and homes.
- Occupational monitoring: noise at work, hand-arm vibration and workplace air quality.
Real-Time Data and Alerts
Real-time systems give secure online access to live data and send alerts when thresholds are exceeded. Site teams can then act before a complaint or an exceedance becomes a problem.
How We Carry Out Monitoring
- Plan: monitoring locations, equipment and trigger levels are agreed against the planning conditions or CEMP.
- Install: our field team installs and commissions the equipment and keeps it calibrated and maintained.
- Alert: real-time systems notify the site team when a trigger level is reached.
- Report: regular reports for the client, contractor and local authority, with commentary on any exceedances.
