Materials Testing
Our materials testing services are considered as complementary to NDT or for analysing specific failures or material components.
Destructive Tests: incorporate physical and mechanical test methods to establish why a material has failed such as tensile strength, toughness and material hardness as well as ability to withstand certain forces (i.e. internal and external pressures).
Forensic failure analysis
Material properties validation
Tensile strength measurements
Coating and lining integrity
Non-ferrous composites
Metallurgy: using material science and advanced micro component technologies we can analyse the physical and chemical behaviour of metals. This allows us to ascertain the specific properties, potential stress failures and corrosive resistance.
Concrete: composite assessment programmes can include:
Carbonation depth testing
Acoustic sounding survey
Chloride analysis
Half-cell potential
Petrographic analysis
Sulphate content
HAC content
Cement content
