Pull Out Testing, Anchor Bolt and Ringbolt Testing Equipment Shropshire
Pull Out Testing Shropshire use the range of Hydrajaws® portable testers and accessories for establishing the holding force of anchors and fixings in most construction materials.
Pull Out Testing engineers are proficient in the use of Hydrajaws® products and have undertaken their training scheme and received certificates of competence which are recognized by local authorities and others in the industry.
Heavy Duty Testing:
The 145Kn Hydrajaws model 2008
tester is used to meet the demand
for proof load testing of larger
construction fixings. The heavy
duty tester can be applied to the
testing of anchorage for crash
barriers on highways, safety
fences for stadium crush barriers
and bridge parapet anchors.
Medium Duty Tension
Tester:
Our engineers in Shropshire are able to
confirm the holding power of
anchors in most construction
materials using the medium
duty tension tester, either
for the purpose of
establishing safe working
loads or to validate the
correct installation of
existing fixings. The tensile
load of up to 25kN is applied
to the fixing mechanically and
hydraulics are used to
register the load through an
accurate analog gauge which
makes the testing very
accurate.
Scaffold Testing Kit:
Following the NASC/CFA guidance
note (TG4:04) we are able to test
the anchorage systems for
scaffolding to check the
suitability and allowable loads of
an anchor type in a particular
base material and check that
anchors have been installed
correctly. This test is to be
carried out on all scaffolding.
Eye and Ringbolt Testing
in Shropshire:
Our engineers are able to test each structural anchorage, after installation
which should be submitted to an axial pull out force of 6kN to confirm the soundness of the fixing.
This service is for testing safety
harness bolts and can be applied
to ladder restraint hooks and most
bolts in concrete and masonry.
Safety Lifeline
Testing:
Working in conjunction with
installers of safety systems using
flexible anchor lines we are able
to test equipment to the
requirements of the new standard
BS EN 795 to ensure full
compliance with the Directive for
Personal Protective Equipment.
Material Bond Testing:
We are able to test a wide variety
of materials for their bonding
strengths. The materials testing
service we provide can be used for
concrete, screeds, repair mortars,
epoxy resin coatings, laminates,
plastics, paints and enamels.
Wall tie Testing in
Shropshire:
Our engineers are able to test
wall ties to ensure correct load
capacity and that they have locked
into place properly and to
determine strength. This type of
testing gives you long term
guarantees and peace of mind.
Long Stroke
Testing:
Long Stroke Testing is able to
determine the strength and
suitability of fixings such as
roofing screws in built-up roofing
constructions where performance
data is unavailable.
Tension Meter:
We provide this service in Shropshire for
testing wire ropes that used for
fall-arrest systems, strain
measurement of rigging, guy ropes,
tower and mast supports, and
checking the security of
crimped/swaged end fittings as
applied to wire ropes.
