Rope Access Dam Inspections

rope access dam inspection As infrastructure throughout the U.S. gets older, the concrete and steel materials used for construction begin to deteriorate from weather, usage, and other environmental factors. Detailed inspections become a critical task that takes high priority to ensure that structures like dams are safe and working effectively. The best way to perform thorough inspections on dams is via rope access.

Before the development of rope access for industrial maintenance services, it was extremely difficult for structural engineers to inspect and access every part of large structures like dams. Cranes & large equipment were often prohibitive due to cost and accessing areas that required inspection via scaffolding was often impossible. When rope access techniques were introduced, dam inspections became exponentially easier because rope access methods were safe, versatile, and economical.

Rope access allows the crew at IA to move freely and more easily than other methods. Because regulations require our technicians to get an up-close look at critical areas, rope access may truly be the only option for dam inspections and repair projects. Physically examining every aspect of a dam and providing photographs and structural NDT testing is crucial for identifying areas of vulnerability and determining the condition of the dam. The mobility & flexibility of rope access means that even the hardest to reach locations are properly inspected and repaired with minimal cost.
