Broad-based structural load testing services, monitoring and assessment for a range of structures.
Through structural load testing services and assessments, our teams evaluate the performance, integrity and compliance of various types of structures. As members of technical committees, EXP’s specialists have contributed to the development of new standards for structural load testing and materials.

Laboratory Testing
- Laboratory load testing: Laboratory load testing of a variety of components including guardrails, scaffold systems, beams, columns, wall panels, windows.
- Materials testing: Advanced testing and modeling techniques supporting a wide range of technical and field-testing services.
Field Monitoring
- Displacement monitoring: Monitoring displacement of structures with the use of digital displacement sensors and data loggers to measure and record displacements due to loads and/or temperature.
- Vibration monitoring: Monitoring vibrations for a variety of purposes including demolition, railway, drilling.
Non-Destructive Testing
- Concrete corrosion potential (half-cell) testing: Determining the corrosion potential of reinforcing steel in concrete structures.
- Concrete rebar cover meter scanning: Measuring the depth of concrete cover and spacing of rebar.
- Schmidt hammer testing
