For example, a low-level alert might go to the consultant and the surveyor as a forewarning, but a more critical alert level might go to the client and perhaps the builder on site, so if they hear or see it trigger they know to stop work immediately.\u201d<\/p><p>Another benefit Mr Swane cites is that vibration monitoring technology delivers a greater level of traceability. \u201cClients can compare any potential movement from the start of the year to the end of the year, or with vibration they can analyse trends in activity over time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f44038a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f44038a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Condition-monitoring-queen-wharf-brisbane.webp\" title=\"Condition monitoring queen wharf brisbane\" alt=\"Condition monitoring queen wharf brisbane\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9aac6d1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9aac6d1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:1500}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Allaying tenant concerns with vibration monitoring alerts<\/h3><p>A high-rise tower in Brisbane\u2019s CBD was monitored for movement as well as vibration during excavation work for the Albert Street Tunnel, part of the city\u2019s new Cross River Rail project.\u00a0<\/p><p>Bennett and Bennett used Senceive\u2019s wireless FlatMesh <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/news\/eyes-on-safety-with-continuous-remote-monitoring\">monitoring system<\/a> and a combination of both tilt and optical displacement sensors to measure for the slightest movements in the tower, with live data available around the clock to the Bennett and Bennett team and other project and building stakeholders.<\/p><p>Bennett and Bennett was also one of the first companies in Australia to adopt the Omnidots SWARM vibration monitoring technology, that had only recently become available through Aptella.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/product\/omnidots-vibration-monitoring\/\">Omnidots specialises in easy to setup<\/a>, autonomous, reliable vibration monitoring systems for use in infrastructure and geophysical applications. The Omnidots solution comprises the SWARM vibration sensors that can be quickly and easily installed on almost any surface. The sensors wirelessly transmit vibration data to the HONEYCOMB web platform in real time, 24 hours a day.<\/p><p>\u201cThe vibration monitoring technology was new to us and new to Aptella, who had only just brought them into the country,\u201d Mr Swane said. \u201cAs a surveying business, one thing that is really important to us is the accuracy of the equipment we\u2019re using and being able to explain and verify to a client that what we\u2019ve just measured or monitored is adequate.&#8221;<\/p><p>One of the first questions Bennett and Bennett asked the team at Aptella was whether they had calibration certificates for this new vibration monitoring equipment. Although calibration certificates are standard on traditional survey instruments such as robotic total stations, they were less common to the monitoring industry, so Aptella worked with Senceive and Omnidots engineers to get them.<\/p><p>\u201cIt really helps that Aptella was able to deliver these certificates because now when a client asks us to demonstrate the monitoring technology\u2019s suitability and that it is fit for purpose, we have calibration certificates to verify the systems\u2019 accuracy,\u201d Mr Swane said.<\/p><p>Before adopting their own vibration monitoring technology, Bennett and Bennett had to outsource vibration monitoring work to a third party. \u201cIt\u2019s not as profitable for us to collaborate with a third party, but at the same time because we didn\u2019t have the in-house expertise, we considered it a bit of a risk to undertake the work ourselves,\u201d Mr Swane said.<\/p><p>For the high-rise tower project, Bennett and Bennett agreed with the property manager and structural engineer that Bennett and Bennett would be responsible for gathering the vibration data, but responsibility for interpreting the data would fall to the structural engineer.<\/p><p>\u201cWith that agreement in place and the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/vibration-equipment-calibration-services\/\"> calibration certificates<\/a> to verify the accuracy of the technology, everyone was clear that we would be providing quality information and an expert was going to interpret that information and there was low risk to us,\u201d Mr Swane said.<\/p><p>Mr Swane explained that the company has taken the same approach with all monitoring work undertaken, whereby the responsibility is in providing the client with relevant, accurate data for an expert \u2013 usually a structural engineer \u2013 to analyse and take action as required.technolo<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0065b26

some tenants in the building who were particularly concerned about the construction work going on around them and the vibration it was causing to the building. When they had full visibility and could see that the vibration was kept below alert levels, it gave them peace of mind,\u201d he added.<\/p><p>Bennett and Bennett also utilised standard digital levelling techniques to monitor subsidence on the tower, as well as a Vernier micrometer for measuring cracks. \u201cWe were keen to try out Senceive\u2019s crack monitoring technology, however the real-time, 24\/7 data it provides wasn\u2019t required on this project as we only needed to record measurements every six months,\u201d Mr Swane said.<\/p><h3>Live subsidence monitoring critical for wastewater treatment plant<\/h3><p>At the Elanora wastewater treatment plant on the Gold Coast, Bennett and Bennett was engaged to monitor subsidence and movement of the building as it was underpinned over a 3-month period.<\/p><p>The Bennett and Bennett team, led by Project Manager \/ Associate Liam Murphy, deployed a combination of Senceive\u2019s tilt and optical sensors to monitor the movement of the walls as they underpinned the building. \u201cThe client wanted real-time reporting on the movement while they were doing the work to determine if what they were doing was causing movement, which it was,\u201d Mr Swane said.<\/p><p>\u201cLike we did for the high-rise tower, alerts were put in place for the Elanora stakeholders that activated their mobile, tablet or desktop computer if movement occurred that was outside the tolerance levels,\u201d he added. \u201cWith the Senceive system we were able to graph the results over the 3-month period and demonstrate that there was some movement at certain times when the work was taking place, and that it stabilised after the work,\u201d Mr Swane said.<\/p><p>Mr Swane said the company\u2019s aim is to use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/omnidots-vibration-monitoring-system\/\">monitoring systems<\/a> on live construction projects. \u201cWe\u2019d like to monitor movement of sheet and contiguous piles or basement works and also monitor adjoining buildings and vibration during the construction processes,\u201d he said.<\/p><p>Like many surveying businesses, Bennett and Bennett has adapted to embrace newer surveying instruments to offer clients a broader service offering. \u201cThe wearable scanner and monitoring systems are the latest additions to the company and are in line with some of the more high-tech emerging services we now offer. From 3D mapping and BIM applications, to conformance reporting, construction, and monitoring, it all ties well together and enables us to provide wholistic solutions for our clients,\u201d Mr Swane explained.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-92015ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"92015ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aptella.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Elanora_3-low.jpg\" title=\"Elanora_3 low\" alt=\"Elanora_3 low\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Southeast Queensland surveying firm invests in NavVis VLX mobile scanning and successfully deploys Senceive deformation monitoring and Omnidots vibration monitoring systems across a range of infrastructure, construction, heritage and utilities projects.
