Stability Testing
Be it lighting systems, traffic lights or floodlight masts on sports grounds,
we are accompanied by lighting masts every day. They light up our streets and sports facilities and regulate traffic.
But how safe are these masts?
They are exposed to a great variety of external factors including heat, cold, road salt and even dog urine. Corrosion takes its course, even in places not visible to the naked eye.
The operators are responsible for ensuring that they operate reliably as part of their duty to ensure road safety. In the event of failure, they can cause considerable material damage or personal injury.
This is something you can prevent.Our LIMAtesttest system, which we developed in cooperation with our partners the Fraunhofer Institute for Non-Destructive Testing (IZfP) and the University of Applied Sciences (HTW) in Saarbrücken, detects corrosion and evaluates its extent.
It calculates the expected remaining service life of the mast. This gives the operator a clear overview of all the vulnerable masts and enables him to calculate maintenance costs for years to come.
Sign gantries and cantilevers
We inspect engineering structures according to DIN 1076.
Wooden masts
ZWP inspects the stability of wooden masts in these fields of application:
