Structural Analysis

From crane booms through to davits, Imes are active in the analysis of structures which are subject to any form of external loading.

Our engineering team have extensive experience in assessment of structures covering problems from corrosion through to crack detection.

Projects undertaken to date include:

  • Pressure vessel integrity
  • Heli-deck inspections
  • Davit inspection
  • Crane boom crack detection
  • Lifting beam analysis
  • Pedestal crane site surveys
  • Goliath crane site surveys
  • Lifting point analysis
  • Padeye NDT analysis

Our engineers can call upon a range of NDT tools to support integrity assessments. NDT expertise includes:

  • Acoustic Emission
  • Strain gauging
  • TOFD
  • MPI
  • Dye Pen

 The data gathered can be used to develop finite element models as well as provide detailed analysis to clients investigating structural integrity.
