Weld quality can make or break the structural integrity of a connection, but many of the most serious weld defects — internal cracks, porosity, lack of fusion — are completely invisible to the naked eye. Our non-destructive examination services for welds use methods such as magnetic particle and liquid penetrant testing to detect surface and near-surface flaws without damaging the weld or the surrounding material. This allows us to verify weld integrity on new construction, modifications, and existing structures where weld quality is in question.
NDE of welds is often called for following structural modifications, after severe weather events, or as part of routine quality assurance on critical connections. Our qualified technicians follow recognized industry procedures and document all findings clearly, giving engineers and tower owners the confidence that the welds holding their structure together meet the standard they were designed to.
