Vibration Monitoring is growing increasingly popular and is often used as an early warning device to ensure that structures or Humans are not affected by excessive levels of vibration. These levels can be caused by anything from nearby building works to vehicles traveling down a road. STS-UK Group offers a service that will aid in the monitoring of any potential harmful impacts due to vibrations.

What is Vibration Monitoring?

The two main areas that are affected by vibration are the impact on humans in their living, or working conditions, and the impact on structures and monitoring potentially dangerous levels of vibration on and around them.

Vibration levels that impact humans can be easily monitored using a complex piece of vibration monitoring equipment. This unit monitors VDV (Variable Dose Value) levels, high levels of this can affect People whether they are at work, in their home or sleeping at night.

STS-UK Group can use our extensive experience with vibration monitoring to install, monitor and report on any vibration values that may be affecting People in their homes or at work.

What Causes Dangerous Vibration Levels?

These high levels of vibration can be caused by anything from a nearby road, or new and ongoing building works. Monitoring any vibrations coming from these or any sources can help prevent further, or any adverse damage to a structure. The causes of the vibration can again range from anything between piling on a nearby building site, to newly installed speed bumps on a local road.

Impact on People and Structures

Vibration effects on structures can cause anything from cosmetic damage, up to catastrophic and premature failure of a building or structure.

• Human Impact: Excessive vibration levels can disrupt sleep, reduce workplace productivity, and lower overall quality of life. Using specialised vibration monitoring equipment, STS Group measures VDV (Variable Dose Value) levels to ensure compliance with safety standards and reduce human discomfort.
• Structural Impact: Vibrations can cause anything from minor cosmetic damage to catastrophic failure in buildings and structures. Monitoring these vibrations allows for timely intervention, reducing the risk of structural deterioration.

We offer a range or vibration monitoring devices that can be used to simple record and store vibrations on a location; up to alerting users via an early warning device, should any vibrations reach a pre-set alarming value.
