SUNNYVALE, Calif., March 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble
(NASDAQ: TRMB) introduced today Trimble® 4D Go™ for
Buildings, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) that enables a new
workflow for building owners and structural engineers in
seismically active areas. The service processes data from Trimble's
REF TEK® monitoring hardware installed in buildings and
delivers immediate notification of seismic activity, providing
real-time information that can be used for faster decision making
regarding structural integrity and occupant safety.
Trimble 4D Go for Buildings transforms how users access a
building's earthquake event data by allowing users to receive data
remotely from a web browser on any internet-enabled device,
anywhere, anytime. As part of the service, shake event reports are
immediately generated after an event and a hardware compliance
report is available to support building code reporting requirements
in many seismically active areas worldwide. In addition, the
solution enables building owners to be notified if the installed
monitoring hardware requires service.
Connecting seamlessly with Trimble's REF TEK accelerometers and
recorders, Trimble 4D Go for Buildings monitors building movement
and determines peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity
(PGV), response spectral acceleration (RSA) and other critical
parameters that enable structural engineers to determine the
building's movement during an earthquake.
Trimble 4D Go for Buildings provides:
- A shake event report that is delivered moments after an event
occurs, containing information required by a structural engineer to
help determine if the building is safe
- Automatic hardware compliance reports that can eliminate
on-site visits to inspect hardware
- Easy implementation through the use of cloud-based software,
removing the need for upfront software licenses and maintenance
updates, which can reduce capital and organizational costs
"Trimble 4D Go for Buildings represents a modern approach to
reporting on a structure's response to seismic activity," said
Shawn Hilliard, business area
director of Trimble's Monitoring Solutions Business Area. "Building
owners and structural engineers can access shake event reports
remotely, receive hardware alerts in real-time, and be
confident they have the information necessary to meet regulatory
requirements, with the benefits of a cloud-based service."
