Corrosion assesment and monitoring as you have never imagined
We provide INNOVATIVE and SUSTANAIBLE long-term solutions for reinforced concrete structures
Welcome to MONITORIZA
We look after reinforced concrete structure durability
The service life of reinforced concrete structures often does not reach the nominal life for which they have been designed. They do not have the necessary control and follow-up.
Since November 2021, regulations require preventive maintenance for the life of the structure. This modification brings about a major change in the way maintenance plans are undertaken by the owner or maintainer.
From MONITORIZA, we help to design a customized maintenance plan based on an innovative system of corrosion analysis of the structur
The main problem: Corrosion
Did you know that the main deterioration detected in concrete structures is due to corrosion of reinforcing steel?
70% of reinforced concrete structures do not meet their design life due to corrosion-related deterioration, causing annual losses of about 40,000M€ in Europe.
In order to achieve the service life of the structure, it is necessary to carry out a correct assessment to design a predictive maintenance plan that avoids deterioration and loss of safety.
Some of the most frequent questions from our clients are: ,
- Is this structure OK, or do I need to repair it?
- Is there corrosion in the reinforcement?
- And if there is... how fast does it advance?
- How much section has the arming lost?
- How SAFE is my structure?
The importance of early corrosion detection
The continuous analysis of the results allows detecting the onset of corrosion even before visible signs of deterioration appear on the structure. This early detection is what makes MONITORIZA’s innovative system a cost-effective asset for owners and maintainers, generating a minimum savings of 30% in maintenance and repairs over the life of the structure.
What we do?
We offer solutions to our clients regarding the durability problems of structures. MONITORIZA offers a service of instrumentation, monitoring, evaluation and follow-up of the service life of reinforced concrete structures.
How we carry it out?
Through our knowledge, with a multidisciplinary team specialized in pathologies and durability of reinforced concrete, installing sensors developed and protected by the CSIC that quantify corrosion in real time in a non-destructive and non-invasive way.
Possibilities of implementation:
MONITORIZA, installs in a simple way the sensoric in any type of reinforced concrete structure, either in its passive or active reinforcement on surface or embedded according to the need:
- In built structure.
- In new construction.
- In repair work.
- In repaired works.
The versatility of the system is such that we cover all market needs.
