Control structural risks associated with your buildings

At a time when standard buildings are becoming a concern for local populations, the private and public players responsible for their upkeep must be extremely vigilant as to the stability of their structures. To assist you with the preservation of the buildings you are in charge of, OSMOS offers continuous, real-time monitoring solutions to determine the exact state of health of your structures, detect any emerging issues and track changes to existing problems.

This way, our analyses help you to take control of the structural risks, launch appropriate upkeep and maintenance work on your buildings, if necessary, and guarantee the safety of the occupants.

Tracking defects and emerging issues

By monitoring the physical parameters of the most critical parts of structures, OSMOS analyzes building behavior, in order to assess their stability and detect any potential deviations. Our solutions allow us to identify all structural problems, whether or not they are visible, and monitor all changes in defects over time.

Monitoring the impact of external strain and neighboring constructions

Thanks to continuous, real-time measurements, OSMOS can not only analyze the structure’s long-term behavioral trends, but also the impact of occasional “dynamic” stresses. These can include nearby work, neighboring constructions and weather phenomena like strong winds, which can cause or exacerbate structural faults in buildings.

The solution to your issues: the results of our analyses

OSMOS tracks various parameters over the long term, in order to detect any structural defects early on and verify the stability of the buildings and any changes that have occurred over time. As a result, our teams are in a position to recognize and anticipate a structure’s mechanical behavior, so as to identify and prevent any structural risks.

Temperature fluctuations, weather events, nearby work and neighboring constructions can all cause damage to buildings. OSMOS’s methodology leverages the continuous, real-time measurements recorded and analyzes long‑term behavioral trends in structures, as well as the impact of dynamic events on their state of health. Our solutions allow us to measure and assess the effects of the environment and human activity on structures.

OSMOS helps you

Protect yourself from irreversible damage

A lack of regular upkeep can lead to major deterioration, which in turn will eventually require substantial renovation work. Check your building’s state of health at any time and anticipate structural risks.

Control personal and property safety

Our monitoring systems function in real time and immediately detect any abnormal behavior, for optimal control over the safety of your property and its occupants.

Extend the lives of your buildings

Verify the actual impact of strain on your structure, in order to define appropriate upkeep actions to preserve your structure and extend its life.

Preserve your building's integrity and value

Protect your structure from the vicissitudes to which it is exposed. By placing it under continuous monitoring and carrying out targeted maintenance actions, you can guarantee its integrity and its preservation over time.

Avoid the cost of downtime

Put an end to urgent responses and opt for proactive management of your structure: avoid critical situations that could force the closure of your building and the substantial expenses associated with protective measures.

Schedule and prioritize maintenance and renovation work

Perform appropriate maintenance work and manage your priorities to significantly reduce the cost of your structure’s upkeep.
