STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT

Re-analysis of bridge and engineering structures

During the service life, corrosion damage, fatigue cracks and locally buckled cross-section parts can affect load-bearing capacity. We assess the load-bearing capacity and stability of existing steel structures based on current load models and possible prior damage.

Typical tasks
  • Corrosion damage, fatigue cracks and buckled cross-section parts
  • Assessment of old structural systems with their limitations and requirements
  • Determination of the calculated residual service life
Scope of services

Load-bearing assessment

Assessment of load-bearing capacity and safety considering all relevant damage.

Residual service life

Determination of the calculated residual service life.

Repair and strengthening

Recommendations for repair and strengthening.

Old structural systems

Proper handling of old structural systems, their limitations and special requirements.

Track-structure interaction

Calculation of track-structure interaction.

Our approach
  1. 01Recording and assessment of existing damage
  2. 02Re-analysis with current load models
  3. 03Verifiable structural calculations and well-founded concepts for service life extension
