CONDITION ASSESSMENT + NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING + REPAIR DESIGN
Concrete structures require regular assessments to ensure continued structural integrity. Our multi-disciplinary team contributes by providing comprehensive knowledge of concrete and concrete materials, degradation mechanisms, and structural engineering design. Through onsite condition assessments, nondestructive testing, sampling and laboratory analysis, our team provides repair solutions to extend the life of concrete structures.
CONDITION ASSESSMENT
In order to quantify existing conditions of a concrete structure, Durability Engineers performs site assessments through a combination of visual, nondestructive and selective sampling techniques. Our conditions assessments are both developed and performed by our licensed engineering team. Our company's approach enables site staff to synthesize observations, and NDT findings in real-time to better develop and focus on the underlying issue while on-site. Our conditions assessments are aided through our expertise and systematic approach:
​
-
Understanding and Interpreting Concrete Distress
-
Structural Condition Assessment
-
Nondestructive Evaluation
-
Selective Sampling​
-
Standardized and Novel Testing
NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING
HOW CAN NONDESTRUCTIVES TESTING HELP YOU?
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) is used to assess the integrity and condition of concrete structures. These techniques can characterize the concrete quality and consistency, reinforcement details, presence of distress (i.e. internal cracks, voids and other anomalies), and corrosion risk. Durability Engineers uses NDT methods for quality control of new construction, assessment of new and existing structures, and evaluations of structures for rehabilitation.
CONCRETE REPAIR DESIGN
Our concrete repair design services are aimed at minimizing construction costs related to constructibility issues and resultant time delays, while minimizing life cycle maintenance costs for your structure. Durability Engineering's repair design services include:
-
Design
-
