Evaluation Of Existing Structures

Tests for determining the bearing capacity of existing structures or elements of it, with or without damage.

Comprehensive service focused on providing a complete consulting engineering or structures which have no apparent damage, requiring a thorough review . The most common reasons why this is required are as follows ;

• Increase in charge due to change of use. Such requirements generally involves minor changes in specific elements .
• Rule change . Trend strongly required after the last earthquake that forced changes of seismic regulations.
• Structural damage caused by earthquakes of great magnitude.
• Rehabilitation of old structures which have no information of its elements and require evaluation for commissioning.
• Quickly indicate what the maximum load that can withstand this element.
• First concrete strength is determined by the Hammer Smith in kg/cm2, then a scan or x-ray where the location, diameter and depth of the steel bars are detected is performed.
