Advance Complex Bridge Inspection Technologies For Bridge Preservation And Maintenance

Bridges are an integral part of any countries success as being able to get goods to market quickly and efficiently gives a major economic advantage to countries that have the best infrastructures.  Complex bridge inspection is a preventive maintenance step to increase the integrity and life of a complex bridge.

Infrastructure Preservation Corporation (IPC) is the leading company in infrastructure testing providing its non intrusive and non destructive inspection services to inspect various parts of our infrastructure including bridge inspection, roadway inspection etc. With an experienced and expert research and development team, we have taken non destructive inspection services to a new level by providing the quantitative about the integrity of any infrastructure like bridges so that necessary steps can be taken before it is too late to repair them.  We have brought technology to an industry void of technology says Doug Thaler, Executive Vice President of Infrastructure Preservation Corporation.  The poor condition of our infrastructure is due to years of improper inspection guidelines that do not help asset managers understand the true condition of the infrastructure they are trying to inspect. In all fairness says Doug Thaler, the current guidelines incentivize the asset managers not to change.  With the current
condition of our infrastructure, bridges and high mast light poles, the asset managers more than ever need quantitative data that with our modern technology and robotics can now be supplied within current budgets.

For complex bridge inspections, we have different advanced technologies like Cablestay scan (CableScan®), Tendon scan (TendonScan®), Crack scan (CrackScan®) and column scan, (ColumnScan®) which can effectively collect accurate data about the bridges in short time without disturbing the traffic on the bridge deck, closing lanes or needing heavy equipment.

Some of the features of complex bridge inspection technologies are:

Saves labour, time and money with non destructive methods

Enhance safety of engineers and the public without the need for lane closures.

Periodic inspections with these technologies detect any micro or macro level damage, defects and irregularities on the infrastructure before they become irreparable.

Better than current subjective methods by providing accurate condition assessment reports in shortest time possible within the department of transportation and the ministry of transportation’s current budgets.
