Production structures are the construction facilities used for equipping producing units and maintaining regulated conditions for the use of production lines. Each such building has its own service life calculated at the design stage. The condition of such buildings must be monitored, including through automated monitoring structures.

Organizing systematic and correct control of industrial facilities is not the good will of the owners, but a direct obligation. It is enshrined both in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and in the regulations SP 68.13330.2017, GOST 31937-2011 as well as POT RO 14000-04-98.

According to current Russian legislation, automated monitoring systems must be implemented at the following buildings:

• over 100 meters high;
• equipped with a substructure depth of more than 15 m;
• with the spans from 100 m;
• equipped with the cantilevered beams over 20 m.

Modern hardware and software environments make it possible to obtain valuable data on the technical condition of facilities. Based on such information, experts create forecasts about the possible performance of buildings during operation. The same information is used to simulate critical situations and the ways to quickly stop their main consequences.

Unique industrial structures are the facilities which height is significantly greater than their transverse dimensions. Such structures are subject to pressure from both vertical and horizontal loads, which is why their conditions have to be controlled with much greater attention.

Buildings of a unique type are divided into two large groups:

• masts primarily take wind loads;
• towers suffer mainly from vertical pressure measures.

Unique industrial structures also include pipes divided into classes depending on height, shape, purpose, number of branches, etc.

Numerous hazardous production facilities operate in various cities and regions of Russia. The main characteristic of such facilities is the increased risk of various accidents. Employees of such locations have to interact with reagents, environments prone to detonation, stationary lifting equipment and other unreliable things.

Ensuring the due degree of safety of structures for relevant industries is achieved by:

• an extremely attentive, responsible and careful approach to the implementation of design tasks;
• one-hundred-percent compliance with building codes at all stages of building construction;
• equipping structures with automated monitoring systems ready for continuous operation.

If the presented standards are neglected then the risk of all types of accidents will increase many times over.

The company provides a full range of services in the sphere of setting up monitoring and control systems at the industrial or production construction facilities. The team of the Scientific and Technical Centre Integrated Monitoring Systems, LLC includes over 50 specialists with vast cumulative experience. More than 200 projects have been implemented in 30 regions of Russia over eight years of work, including for production facilities installed in the regions with the most difficult weather conditions.

Our company is not only an integrator, but also a developer of its own unique solutions for organizing monitoring for the condition of various facilities. The implementation of products supplied by the Scientific and Technical Centre Integrated Monitoring Systems, LLC into the scope of industrial locations is another chance to protect people and equipment from accidents associated with the obvious operational complexity of industrial structures.
