Construction Industry

SOLAS Marine can provide a selection of precision magnetic compasses and clinometers, general field compasses and anemometers for use in the construction industry.

Site Surveying

The Suunto range of precision instrument is used all over the world by surveying professionals in the construction industry.

Applications include antenna installation, building, road construction, mining, and many others to measure bearings, heights or slope inclination.

The range includes individual compasses and clinometers or a combined instrument containing both in one handy instrument.

Mobile Wind Speed Measurement

Wind speed measurement is an important factor in the construction industry, from determining wind speeds for design loadings to monitoring wind speed for safe working at height or safe lifting of bulky loads.

We have a range of wind meters to suit all construction industry requirements, from small pocket sized instruments to full size units that can be tripod mounted.

In addition to wind speed, the more advanced models of anemometer can also measure temperature, altitude and pressure. An inbuilt compass is also available for determining wind direction.

Static Wind Speed Measurement

In addition to our mobile wind speed measurement solutions we can offer the Instromet range of static weather stations.

Static weather stations provide an ideal solution for site managers and safety offices who need to monitor site conditions when employees are working at height or operating access equipment.

Base models display minimum of wind speed and direction whilst more advanced models have the ability to display temperature, humidity and rainfall readings. There is also the option for data logging if records of site weather conditions need to be maintained.
