The leader in pole assessment, stabilisation and
maintenance.
Pole Testing: An inspection
protocol has been developed that addresses the identification of wood
decay. An estimation of residual life can be considered and then an
assessment is made for the poles ability to be remedially treated
effectively.
Rot
Determination
The inspection protocol
allows decay to be interpreted either visually and/or internally via
a microphone drill.
The results are converted
into a display, graphically showing areas affected.
Loadings
Line design parameters are
used to determine the maximum permissible wind span loading and also
the maximum strut loading as appropriate.
This information is either
referenced from the computer software or observed on site for the
inspector to accept or reject the pole.
Results Passes and Failures are recorded with
recommendations for remedial treatment. All information is provided
with the Viewer software together with digital photographs taken during
the site visit.
