Structural Testing

Structural Testing is an integral part of the modern construction industry, whether it be proving individual components or materials are fit for purpose or load testing novel or existing structures.

Component or material testing can be to established standards or regimes to demonstrate adequate performance or may be more bespoke for new products during development or for certification prior to product launch. We have a well equipped purpose built structural testing laboratory and are involved with Standards and Certification bodies so can respond to customers needs in a comprehensive way.

Full size structures may require testing in a design by test situation or in the development of novel designs or to demonstrate that an existing building can continue to meet modern standards possibly after a change of use. Structures up to three stories high in all structural materials can be tested in the laboratory under a wide variety of loading actions. We are accredited by UKAS for a very large range of tests and can operate to the same high standards in developing bespoke tests in the laboratory or on site for example in listed buildings.

Whatever the circumstance our early involvement in projects invariably leads to a highly tailored approach, interaction with the customer is always encouraged and welcomed.
