Timber structures investigations

TRUST US WITH YOUR TIMBER STRUCTURES

In many cases, the actual condition of a timber structure is difficult to assess, particularly when internal deterioration, weakened areas, or degradation mechanisms are not visible at the surface.

Constru-Care supports you with a comprehensive approach to the investigation and assessment of timber structures, combining in-situ testing, surveys, targeted sampling, and analyses tailored to the specific deterioration mechanisms and pathologies encountered.

Our experts assess the condition of timber structures, identify potential defects, and characterise deterioration mechanisms such as biological attack, section loss, moisture-related damage, cracking, deformation, and connection defects.

These investigations provide a clear, reliable and actionable understanding of the structure, enabling informed and sustainable decisions regarding maintenance, repair, strengthening and rehabilitation.

Experienced specialists, extensive knowledge of wood, advanced equipment, and rigorous analysis ensure an accurate understanding of material properties and structural condition.

END-TO-END SERVICE DELIVARY

A single point of contact, from expert assessment through to the maintenance planning of your timber structure, including detailed inspections, targeted investigations, structural monitoring, and engineering analysis.

RELIABLE AND ACTIONABLE RESULTS

A pragmatic approach and clear conclusions designed to provide a thorough understanding of the situation and support rapid, informed decision-making.

From inspection to analysis

From inspection to analysis

INSPECTIONS

Visual inspections of all types of timber structures, including technical surveys and condition assessments. Inspections can be carried out using drones, rope access techniques, and other specialised access methods.

IN-SITU INVESTIGATION

Investigations on all types of timber structures and infrastructure, including sample extraction, drilling and other targeted surveys.

NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING

Non-destructive testing of existing timber structures using advanced investigation techniques such as radar surveys, resistograph testing, thermographic analysis, and other methods to assess structural condition without causing damage.

LAB TESTING

Essais sur échantillon de bois réalisés suivant les normes en vigueur par des laboratoire certifiés: Essais sur échantillon bois. Essais de compression, flexion, essais fongiques etc.

MONITORING

Accurate monitoring of timber structures through real-time instrumentation systems or periodic measurements, using gauges, displacement and deformation monitoring devices, stress sensors, humidity probes, temperature sensors, and other monitoring equipment.

ANALYSIS

Assessment of the condition of timber structures, including structural condition evaluations, fire resistance assessments, project feasibility studies, and other engineering analyses to support informed decision-making and asset management.
