Vibration


ACI conducts vibration measurements and impact assessments for various transportation, construction/demolition, and industrial projects as well as building and human vibration.

 

ACI has the equipment to conduct long-term vibration monitoring with overall amplitude and frequency content as well as remote data access, real-time alerts for vibration exceedences, and daily/weekly/monthly reporting.  If required, clients and the public can also have access to real-time vibration data for sensitive projects.
