Our Bridge Inspection Capabilities
From routine principal inspections to complex structural assessments, we cover the full spectrum of bridge inspection requirements.
Principal Inspections
Comprehensive visual and physical inspections of all bridge elements in accordance with Austroads and relevant state authority guidelines. Delivered on schedule to meet asset management obligations.
Routine Maintenance Inspections
Regular condition monitoring to identify deterioration early, prioritise maintenance works, and extend the service life of bridge assets. Ideal for councils and road authorities managing large asset portfolios.
Special Purpose Inspections
Targeted inspections following flood events, vehicle strikes, seismic activity, or other incidents that may have compromised structural integrity. Rapid mobilisation and detailed damage assessment.
Underwater & Below-Deck Inspections
Inspection of substructure elements including piers, abutments, and foundations using specialist access equipment. Critical for identifying scour, corrosion, and hidden structural defects.
Load Capacity Assessments
Structural analysis and load rating calculations to determine safe load limits for ageing or modified bridge structures. Supports permit decisions and asset management planning.
Drone & Remote Inspection
UAV-assisted visual inspection of hard-to-access elements including high-level deck soffits, tall piers, and remote structures. Reduces access costs and improves safety for inspection teams.
Advanced capability
Drone-Assisted Bridge Inspection
