Old Crowe Health & Wellness Centre

Our field review work supports the quality assurance process through regular and strategic observation to help ensure that the construction meets the design intent. Our field review personnel are qualified and experienced, having a track record of successful projects and an interest in working cooperatively and collaboratively in a team environment. We are solution-oriented with an interest in progress toward practical and cost-effective methods that meet performance expectations.

Measurement and verification (M&V) is the process of quantifying savings delivered by energy conservation measures. We complete M&V studies for a variety of project types, including verifying whole building savings for new buildings, and verifying system-level savings as part of utility demand side management projects or to test new products.

Our team reviews the basis of the project design shown in the construction documents to confirm its feasibility from a structural perspective, and together with the building enclosure consultant, confirm that manufacturers can meet the project requirements. The continuity of our capabilities in both façade structures and building enclosure science empowers our clients to achieve high-quality and creative building enclosures.

We focus on the details and the interfaces between them. Our expertise comes in our appreciation for the construction process and the interaction between materials and assemblies provided by varied design and construction team members. We combine formal and informal consultation to support the design team in identifying and articulating integration of the building enclosure assemblies. Our review also includes identification of additional details needed to convey the design intent.

Getting to the root of building failures means having a deep understanding of all aspects of building design and construction, condition assessment & evaluation techniques, and the materials themselves required to determine the root cause of a failure.

RDH is here to leverage that deep bench of knowledge and resources to help clients assess architectural, civil, structural, electrical, fire protection, materials, and mechanical issues occurring or that have occurred in the building.

Our goal is to provide you with root cause determination and tailor a cost-effective solution for your individual situation. As always, RDH adheres to the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM classification standards) across all our work.
