New Heat Index Monitoring for Construction

CORIS launches heat index monitoring to help construction site managers protect crews from heat-related illness in real time.

Real-Time Heat Index Monitoring for Construction Sites

CORIS is launching a new heat index monitoring capability built specifically for construction site managers who need to protect crews from heat-related illness in real time. By combining temperature, humidity, and the calculated heat index in a single sensor, the system gives safety leaders the visibility they need to act before conditions on a job site turn dangerous.

Heat-related illness is one of the most preventable safety risks on a construction site — and one of the most overlooked. With OSHA moving toward a national heat safety rule, contractors are under growing pressure to document conditions, acclimatize new crew members, and pull workers when the heat index crosses key thresholds. CORIS heat index monitoring is designed to make all of that straightforward.

What's Included

• Battery-operated wireless sensors that measure temperature and relative humidity and calculate heat index values continuously
• Real-time alerts when the heat index crosses 80°F and 90°F thresholds aligned with the proposed OSHA rule
• Color-coded escalation tied to the National Weather Service heat advisory scale
• Dedicated reports per sensor so safety leads can isolate hot spots across a single site
• Historical data retained for compliance with OSHA and state-level heat safety standards

Built for the Way Job Sites Actually Work

Construction sites change every day — walls go up, slabs cure, scaffolds shift. CORIS sensors are wireless, battery-powered, and built on LoRaWAN, so a single gateway covers an entire structure and sensors can be repositioned as the work progresses. There's no Wi-Fi to depend on, no wiring to pull, and no IT project required to get monitoring in place.
