Industrial Access provides Non Destructive Testing (NDT) & inspection services to help determine the structural integrity of industrial chimneys, smokestacks, towers & more. Here's a look at some of the services we provide for structural testing:
Petrographic Testing
This method takes material samples or borings of the structure for laboratory testing in order to determine structural weakness or aging.
Infrared Thermography
This technique is used to spot leakage of heat through welds, couplings, valves or junctions/connections within structures, piping, ductwork, breaching or stack construction. Spotting these vulnerabilities allows us to stay ahead of breakdowns and outages by addressing weak spots before they turn into larger issues.
Non Destructive Testing (NDT)
NDT methods include Ultrasonic Thickness (UT) Checking, Infrared Thermography, hardness tests for concrete and FRP structures, and Petrographic Testing. With NDT methods, we are able to test the strength and structural integrity of your structure without affecting usefulness or performance. Essentially, we use means that don’t require a physical material sample which could damage the structure.
Ultrasonic Thickness (UT) testing is the most popular NDT method & uses UT meters to test for thinning of material from corrosion or erosion, to determine any unusual or excessive areas of wear that could compromise structural integrity and safety.
