Test Weights & Engineered Frame Testing:
We carry various test weights in all our yards to allow for testing of Offshore Containers, Units & Engineered Frames as well as Spreader Bars & other lifting devices.
Our 35 Tonne Concrete Test Weights allow us to achieve large test loads with the use of slings bellied around frames and lifted devices. And our various small test weights allow us to place them on or inside the unit that requires proofloading.
Onsite Testing:
Our Mobile technicians are trained to carry out testing onsite as required. Through the use of Calibrated Test Weights, Waterbags & Testing Jigs along with our NATA Calibrated Loadcells & Gauges we can test Frames, Cranes, Padeyes and other various items on location.
