Our Services
Monitoring & Risk Management
The engineering division at Plowman Craven, with its focussed teams of engineering surveyors, is at the forefront of many major tunnelling and construction developments where precise monitoring for early warning of structural movement is required.
Our experienced monitoring surveyors have been providing precise measurement data for many of London's development programmes over the last 10 years, particularly within the rail environment:
- Kings Cross/St Pancras Stations
- Channel Tunnel Rail Link
- Farringdon Station
- Canary Wharf
- Royal Oak Portal
Risk avoidance is crucial to the success of multi-million pound schemes and projects recently commissioned include London's major new infrastructure developments, station upgrades, Crossrail and the Thameslink Programme. We are currently providing monitoring services at:
- Borough Viaduct
- Tottenham Court Road Station
- Limeburner Lane & Old Bailey Development
- Bond Street Station
All major projects where there is a possibility of damage occurring to the surrounding infrastructure will have monitoring regimes in place, both manual monitoring and automated schemes using robotic instrumentation.
Plowman Craven's highly trained workforce uses the latest high precision instrumentation to measure and record fixed reference points on structures. The resulting data is then computed and presented for further analysis by specialists in order to provide indicators which might foretell problems with regard to ground collapse or heave caused through large scale underground works.
We also provide Environmental Monitoring Services, a key element in any development moving forward.
Plowman Craven has the highest reputation among the UK's leading engineering consultants and construction groups, providing the monitoring services required to ensure the safe delivery of their designs.
