Risk Management
Survey & Testing
Multiple surveys and testing solutions completed under one agreement
The success of a project is generally measured on the quality of the information and the professional team delivering the scheme.
Coupled with our consultancy based services we provide critical surveying and testing services to support the professional teams in the planning and delivery of projects. Even the best professional team will struggle to effectively deliver a project if they do not have the necessary data.
Our survey and testing services are designed to support consultants in the review, planning, delivery and auditing of retrofit and facade projects. We have combined experience in air pressure testing and assessment, ventilation commissioning and auditing, pull-out testing, and thermographic surveys.
These services can be used individually or in combination to provide a more complex overview of a property or facade. Our services will help to identify weaknesses with air and moisture movement, and thermal imbalance within the building envelope, and to prove ventilation systems. Combined, these testing services will help to limit the potential hazards of mould and condensation within a property. They will also help to establish the as-built condition of a property, and the installed performance, and on completion, they can be used to prove the design and specification have been realised.
Structurally we undertake pull-out testing for fixings to help establish performance data on existing buildings so engineers can design connections.
Our Survey & Testing Services
Air Pressure Testing
Calculating the air permeability or leakage rate to ensure energy efficiency
- Part L1A and L2A (England & Wales) of The Building Regulations requirement
- Tested to meet or exceed the air permeability rating specified in your design stage SAP or SBEM Calculations
- Mandatory requirement for new build residential and commercial properties
- Lower the environmental impact of the building and save on energy costs.
Ventilation Testing
Our ventilation team are trained in the inspection and commissioning of ventilation systems in a domestic environment.
- Part F (England & Wales) of The Building Regulations requirement
- Avoid poor indoor air quality that creates an unhealthy environment
- Ensure the practical performance of ventilation systems
- Ensure compliance with building regulations
Pull-Out Testing
Quantitatively measures the coupling strength between structural concrete and fastener elements attached to it
- Insulation render fasteners
- Crucial quality-control method to ensure that the concrete meets specified standards
- Cladding anchors
- Optimise designs to minimise the risk of defects and prevent potential failures
Thermographic Survey
A thermographic inspection is key to improving thermal performance and driving build quality
- Assess build quality in terms of thermal bridging
- Assess the continuity of insulation
- Identify air leakage
- Identify evidence of moisture or water leakage
Photogrammetry
Drone Photogrammetry enables our teams to photograph and measure areas that are generally in accessible or difficult to measure with conventional technologies.
- Measured surveys
- Topographical models
- Cloud point surveys
- Thermography
- Video imagery
- Inspection and auditing surveys
Drone Surveys
Drones have revolutionised the way we approach construction
- Condition surveying
- Thermography surveys
- Photogrammetry surveys
- Record and auditing
- Fault Finding
- Maintenance and inspection
