Commercial buildings and high-rise structures require structural investigation that minimises disruption to tenants and business operations. SiteOps delivers non-destructive assessment programmes designed around occupied building constraints — investigating after hours, using non-contact methods where possible, and staging work to maintain building operations.
Typical investigations address facade condition, post-tensioned floor systems, car park deterioration, and structural capacity for change of use or tenant fit-out. Our GPR scanning locates reinforcement and post-tensioning without cutting, thermography identifies facade moisture and delamination from ground level, and drone inspection accesses high-rise facades without scaffold.
SiteOps has investigated multi-storey car parks, commercial office towers, and retail centres across Southeast Queensland, providing the evidence-based structural data that asset owners need for capital planning, maintenance budgeting, and regulatory compliance.
Typical challenges
- Minimising tenant disruption during investigation
- Accessing high-rise facades safely and cost-effectively
- Assessing post-tensioned floor systems non-destructively
- Car park deterioration and corrosion assessment
- Change of use structural capacity verification
- Fire damage assessment with rapid re-occupancy requirements
