Industrial IoT for Construction
LoRaWAN sensors, gateways and dashboards for Construction — specified, stocked and supported by UK engineers.
Industrial IoT for Construction replaces manual rounds, spreadsheets and blind spots with live LoRaWAN telemetry: low-power sensors, resilient gateways and dashboards that flag a problem the hour it happens, not the week after. Indiott specifies, stocks and supports the full stack and ships across the UK from local warehouses.
UK construction is a large and fragmented sector, with new work worth around £141bn in 2024 and more than 370,000 registered firms, most of them small. It is also one of the more hazardous industries, and reforms since Grenfell have raised the bar on both safety and record keeping. LoRaWAN sensing helps sites and contractors monitor dust, noise, structures and welfare across changing, often power-limited environments.
Industrial IoT for Construction: sensors, gateways and dashboards
Built for Site and project managers, Health, safety and environmental managers, Principal contractors and dutyholders, Building safety and compliance managers and Groundworks and demolition contractors. Every asset that fails quietly — a pump, a chiller, a cold store, a plant room — is a candidate for a battery LoRaWAN sensor reporting to one dashboard. Typical Industrial IoT for Construction deployments include:
- Silica and construction dust monitoring to protect workers and neighbours
- Boundary noise and vibration monitoring against agreed site limits
- Structural movement and crack monitoring on works and adjacent buildings
- Concrete curing temperature and maturity monitoring to schedule pours
- Welfare cabin and store temperature, humidity and occupancy monitoring
- Water leak and flood sensing to protect finished works and materials
LoRaWAN sensors and gateways for Construction
The Industrial IoT for Construction hardware below is UK-stocked and dispatched nationwide. Every device joins the same five-layer stack, so you can start with one gateway and a handful of sensors and scale without re-platforming.
EM500Outdoor environmental sensorRugged EM500 series for outdoor CO2, level, pressure and soil measurement.
UR35Industrial cellular routerDual-SIM 4G/5G router for resilient connectivity at remote and mobile sites.
EM300Leak / contact / T+RH sensorCompact EM300 series for door, leak, temperature and humidity monitoring.
TS101Insertion temperature sensorLoRaWAN insertion probe for pipe, tank and process temperature.
UG67Outdoor LoRaWAN gatewayIP67 outdoor gateway for site-wide coverage across yards, plants and campuses.
UG65Semi-industrial LoRaWAN gateway8-channel indoor gateway backhauling hundreds of LoRaWAN sensors over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular.
Compliance and drivers in Construction
Higher-risk buildings, defined under the Building Safety Act 2022 as at least 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more residential units, must keep a digital golden thread of safety information across their lifecycle. Site health and safety is governed by the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, with the HSE enforcing control of respirable crystalline silica and other dusts, and noise and vibration on many projects controlled to BS 5228. Continuous monitoring gives dutyholders dated evidence for these duties.
Indiott builds the monitoring and evidence layer around those duties: continuous data, threshold alarms that reach the duty engineer by SMS, and timestamped records you can hand to an auditor. Useful references: HSE: construction statistics in Great Britain GOV.UK: keeping information about a higher-risk building (the golden thread). The stacks construction teams reach for most:
Why Construction teams choose Indiott
Here is why construction operators pick Indiott as their Industrial IoT for Construction partner rather than a generic reseller.
UK stock, UK delivery
Milesight, Atop and AquaIoT hardware supplied from the UK, typically dispatched within 14 working days nationwide.
Engineer-led, not box-shifting
An engineer scopes every enquiry and returns a costed bill of materials within one working day.
One stack, many brands
Interoperable sense, connect, secure, control and manage layers, so you are never locked to a single vendor.
Bespoke when off-the-shelf ends
When the device you need does not exist, we design and build it — firmware, enclosure and integration.
Industrial IoT for Construction: frequently asked questions
Can sensors work on a live site without fixed power or internet?
Yes. LoRaWAN devices are battery powered and report over long-range radio to a single gateway, so dust, noise and structural sensors keep working as a site changes and moves, without cabling every position.
How does monitoring help with dust and noise duties?
Continuous dust, noise and vibration readings give dated records against the limits set for the site, supporting HSE expectations on respirable crystalline silica and BS 5228 noise controls, and providing evidence if neighbours or inspectors raise concerns.
Does this support the Building Safety Act golden thread?
Monitoring data on structures, curing and environmental conditions can be captured as part of the digital record that higher-risk building dutyholders are required to keep, adding evidence to the golden thread of safety information.
