Specialist NDT

By structurally testing lighting units and other metal structures those involved in the street lighting and highways industry can plan and budget for their repair and replacement schemes.  All lighting supports will deteriorate over time and the type of inspection required will vary according to their age, location, use, design, construction and the materials of manufacture.

 

Our Specialist NDT division covers the non-destructive testing of highmasts, floodlights, traffic mast arms, flanged mounted columns, bridge mounted columns, signs and steel structures.  We offer a comprehensive range of testing methods carried out by fully qualified PCN Level 2 Engineers, which include Visual Inspection, Ultrasonic Testing, Magnetic Particle Inspection and Dye Penetrant Inspection.  The format of the results vary according to the type and level of testing undertaken and range from highly extensive reports to low level Pass/Fail criteria. 

 

Please use the drop down menu on the left to access brief descriptions of our testing methods.  Should you require further information please contact our specialist team who will happily recommend the right solution, whatever your requirements.

Why test?

Over the past few years it has become clear that lighting columns and other high structures are deteriorating at an alarming rate, in particular, flange fittings and bridge mountings are at particular risk.  This has necessitated inspection, repair and replacement schemes to be hurried into place to ensure that safety criteria are consistently met.  However, not all lighting columns are of the same design and therefore require different levels of inspection.  This in particular applies to high mast lighting columns, which perhaps, considering their normal construction and location, pose a bigger threat to the safety of an increasingly litigious general public.
