On-Site Inspection + Testing
Ensuring that your structures are safe on site, SSL engineers deliver a unique perspective, skill-set and experience. Our on-site inspections utilise two sets of skills and knowledge – those of traditional permanent structures, and those of temporary membrane structures, which of course operate in a very different way. Few traditional engineers have expertise in this niche area of temporary membrane / tensile structures.
