CAMBRIDGE, MA — WeatherBuild®, Decision Support Solutions for the Construction Industry and Built Environment™, is proud to highlight the release of metric units for leading contractor, owner and operator customers in Canada, and for customers across the alternative and renewable energy market sectors who simultaneously use both the Imperial and metric systems on the same projects.
For projects in the wind energy industry across the United States, many of WeatherBuild’s contractor, owner and operator customers use Imperial units for precipitation and temperature events, and use metric units for wind and wind gust events, including wind speeds at varying heights above ground level up to 100 meters, to increase productivity, enhance safety and manage risk in the field.
Further, in the alternative and renewable energy market sectors, such as in the wind energy industry, many of the leading system and product manufacturers provide maximum recommended wind speed limits in meters per second (m/s) for carrying out construction operations for each of the critical components: base, middle, top, nacelle, working inside the nacelle, rotor, blade-rotor assembly, and locking out the rotor.
Adam Omansky, Co-founder & CEO of WeatherBuild, notes that “Our team is proud to better serve our contractor, owner and operator customers across the alternative and renewable energy market sectors, such as the wind energy industry. Market leaders rely on WeatherBuild Decision Support Solutions each and every hour of each work shift and day, to help improve situational awareness and make better-informed decisions.”
