Introducing BEAS (Building Envelope Assessment System)
Your Ultimate High-Rise Inspection Solution
BEAS, the Building Envelope Assessment System, is a ground-breaking equipment designed to revolutionize the inspection and evaluation of building enclosures in high-rise and mid-size buildings. With the capability to reach heights of up to 40 levels, BEAS empowers architects and engineers to conduct comprehensive assessments from ground level or rooftop vantage points.
*Key Features of BEAS:**
1. Wind-Resistant Design: One of BEAS’s standout features is its ability to operate under challenging weather conditions. With a sophisticated system that minimizes rotation, pendular or circular movements, BEAS can withstand winds of up to 8 km/h. This eliminates the risk of broken windows, smashing the equipment to glass of wall, or making a free show for residents by an uncontrolled bouncing camera.
2. Height Accessibility: BEAS is capable of reaching heights of up to 40 levels. This means that even the tallest skyscrapers can be thoroughly inspected without the need for costly and time-consuming man-drops, boom lifts or swing stage setups.
3. Remote Controlled Camera: At the heart of BEAS lies a remote-controlled camera system. This advanced camera can be maneuvered with precision to capture high-definition pictures and videos of building envelope components. This feature ensures that inspectors can thoroughly assess every detail without the limitations of human access.
4. Comprehensive Coverage: BEAS offers a feasible option of having a 360-degree view of the building envelope, enabling inspectors to access every inaccessible part of the structure. This comprehensive coverage ensures that no issues go unnoticed, leading to more accurate assessments and faster resolution of problems.
Benefits of BEAS
The introduction of BEAS brings several benefits to the field of architecture and engineering:
1. Enhanced Safety: With BEAS, the safety of inspectors is significantly improved. There is no need for rope access drops, risky maneuvers or access methods, reducing the chances of accidents or injuries on the job.
2. Cost-Efficiency: BEAS eliminates the need for expensive man-drops, boom-lift or swing stage setups, resulting in substantial cost savings for building assessments. It also reduces downtime for buildings under inspection.
3. Precision and Accuracy: The remote-controlled camera system allows for precise inspections, ensuring that even the smallest issues are identified. This leads to more accurate assessments and targeted repairs.
4. Minimal Disruption: Traditional inspection methods often cause disruption to building occupants. BEAS minimizes this disruption by conducting inspections from external vantage points, reducing the need for invasive access.
5. Speedier Assessments: BEAS expedites the assessment process. Inspectors can quickly capture high-quality images and videos, enabling faster decision-making and problem-solving.
The Building Envelope Assessment System (BEAS) marks a significant milestone in the field of building inspect and evaluate high-rise and mid-size buildings with unprecedented precision and safety. Its wind-resistant design, remote-controlled camera, and comprehensive coverage make it an invaluable tool for diagnosing building envelope issues.
As we look to the future of architecture and engineering, BEAS stands as a testament to human ingenuity and the relentless pursuit of innovation in an ever-evolving industry. With BEAS, the sky is not the limit; it’s just the beginning.
