Destructive probing
A team of experts in destructive testing to ensure the safety and durability of buildings and engineering structures
Destructive testing is an investigative technique that involves taking a sample of material from an existing structure for laboratory analysis. This technique provides precise information about the quality and strength of the material, as well as the presence of defects or anomalies. Here are some of the key benefits:
Determine the quality and strength of the material: destructive probing provides precise information on the quality and strength of the material, which can be useful when planning renovation or repair work. The data obtained can be used to determine the strength and physical characteristics of the material, such as density, porosity, moisture content, compressive strength, etc.
Identifying defects and anomalies: destructive probing can also be used to identify defects and anomalies in the material, such as cracks, areas of delamination, areas of corrosion, etc. This information is useful for determining whether repairs are necessary and for planning repair work.
Assessing the condition of the structure: using destructive probing, it is possible to assess the condition of the structure as a whole, which can help identify critical areas and plan maintenance or repair work.
Improving safety: by identifying defects and anomalies, destructive probing can help to improve the safety of the structure by enabling targeted repair work to be carried out.
