Why Choose us for Bridge Inspections?
Our team of structural surveyors and technical operatives are experienced in carrying out bridge inspections as well as inspections to other concrete structures. We can mobilise rapidly to attend structures on highways, rail, commercial and residential infrastructure.
The majority of the in-situ testing methods above are most effective when used on a comparative basis. The data collected from a suite of recommended testing can be correlated by one of our surveyors/engineers. Results interpreted from the tests are used to make a recommendation for any remedial or repair work required.
