"Our extensive experience with structures of all types and vintages enables efficient and effective evaluation and repair solutions."
— Tracy Perry, Associate Principal and Unit Manager
Better solutions come from a better understanding of the problems. When presented with a new challenge, the first objective is to establish a baseline. Our professionals draw upon decades of experience to accurately decipher the conditions present and determine how they may contribute to present or future problems. We apply the lessons learned from more than 175,000 projects to provide clients with a full picture of their structure’s or component’s condition. From visual assessments to complex service life modeling studies, we provide clients the answers they need.
From on-site surveys to field and laboratory testing, we take a hands-on approach to condition evaluation. Our professionals utilize traditional access methods, such as lifts and swing stages, as well as rope access techniques and drone technology to visually assess structures of all sizes and configurations. Using data-collection tools such as WJE Plannotate®—a tablet-based proprietary software application—we efficiently collect and annotate inspection data and share those findings in real time with other team members, who work to organize and analyze the information.
When additional information is needed, materials samples or building elements can be tested in the field or in our in-house laboratories. Using state-of-the-art testing equipment and laboratories, our professionals can determine everything from a material’s elemental composition and construction type to a component’s load capacity or cause of failure.
Based on a thorough understanding of a structure’s condition, we develop technically sound and tailored recommendations.
