Principal Bridge Inspection
Collins has been involved in numerous principal bridge
inspection projects. Our firm has a wealth of experience
in bridge inspection work, including element level routine
inspections, fracture critical inspections, and in-depth
inspections for design, damage and other types of bridge
inspections. Most of our engineering staff has completed
bridge inspection training, and others have authored
and taught bridge inspection training courses in Ireland
and the USA.
Collins'
project experience is diverse. However the design, analysis,
and assessment of structures remains the common thread
of our expertise. From the preparation of structure
inspection manuals and presenting bridge inspection
courses to the testing and evaluation of cracked welds
on a truss chord, we provide a hands-on and service
oriented approach to all of our clients.
