Understanding Asset Condition to Drive Precise Interventions
Before planning, designing, or executing any work, you need a precise understanding of where intervention is required. At Equinox Construction Services, we support our clients through the critical phases of inspection, technical surveying, and data collection to secure every stage of upcoming projects.
Whether you are assessing dam rehabilitation, verifying the condition of a hydroelectric facility, inspecting hydraulic infrastructure, or documenting renewable energy assets in operation, we deliver reliable, actionable insight into on-site conditions.
Our work supports regulatory compliance, including dam safety requirements and applicable regulations, while addressing broader infrastructure performance and operational integrity standards.
Reliable Data to Guide Your Decisions
Our inspection services provide a clear and accurate view of your structures’ condition, even in complex or hard-to-access environments.
We intervene ahead of construction, during critical project phases, or to document infrastructure in service — reducing risk, ensuring compliance (including dam safety regulations where applicable), and supporting informed engineering and operational decisions across hydroelectric, hydraulic, and renewable energy projects.
Our expertise includes:
- Field and structural visual inspections
- Drone surveys (photography, video, thermography)
- Topographic and bathymetric surveys
- River surface modeling and velocity mapping
- Underwater inspections by certified divers or ROV
- 3D mapping using photogrammetry
- Structural condition analysis (defects, cracking, deformation)
- Data collection in complex environments (remote, operational, or submerged sites)
- Integration of collected data into visual and technical reports
- Reports compliant with regulatory requirements and dam safety standards
- Support for intervention planning and engineering design

Dam and Power Plant Projects: Inspection and Data Collection Services
Aerial Drone Inspection
Our high-definition drones are used to map, film, and analyze hard-to-reach areas such as dam faces, unstable rock slopes, powerhouse roofs, and solar panels.
They allow us to detect cracks, seepage, and structural deficiencies while reducing risks for on-site teams and accelerating inspection timelines — a key advantage in maintaining dam safety compliance.
Underwater Inspection
Through our certified divers and ROV technology, we inspect submerged structures such as water intakes, gates, penstocks, and cofferdams.
Inspections can be filmed, documented in real time, and integrated into clear technical reports to support planning, rehabilitation design, and compliance with dam safety regulations.
