I though we'd have some fun with Movie Maker today. As part of our extensive range of services, we are often asked to monitor structures for movement or damage.
Usually this is over a long period of time, but sometimes it it requires instant feedback. The video below gives you a glimpse into our world.
Turn on sound for the full effect - and no this is a sound effect not the bridge, it was fine.

Latest Project - M5 Motorway Inspections
Being access specialists doesn't mean we always go for the most exciting means of carrying out an inspection.
On the contrary we select the most appropriate means of access, giving the client the best value solution. Recently while conducting a hammer tap and visual surveys of the 4 side spans of 2 I/C bridges on the M5 we emplyed the most appropriate means which was
Oh yes and we needed some
This bridge is interesting in that it has been strengthened using bonded steel plates; these were also included in the inspection.
We chose rope access to undertake the inspection of the soffit above the revetment, while tower scaffolding was selected, for its efficiency, in the areas of the soffit between the bottom of the revetment and the pier. Having a multi skilled team of inspection engineers made this switch between techniques practical and efficient.
The works were completed by Kev, Darren, Rob and Stuart to te satisfaction of all concerned.
For complete solutions, rope access, confined space, conventional or access over water, contact us 01270 589615

Transportation Consultants
Lost amongst all of the Olympics and holidays was the CIHT Consultants Directory where Up and Under found themselves ranked 77th out of 149 consultantants offering transportation related services. Although we were not able to compete with the Atkins, Arups and WSPs (who were ranked 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively) we were well placed against many other well known names in the industry .
We have continued to grow the range of services to both structure owners and other consultancies. We carry a range of qualifications and accreditations specific to transport related asset management.
Whether it is conventional inspections or works requiring specialist access we are always happy to help. Give us a call 01270 589615. We are also interested in export partnership arrangements.
