Construction Field Inspections San Diego

What it is: Overall, a combination of inspection disciplines for large construction jobsites done by a multi certified special inspector.

What it does: It allows inspectors who are familiar with the jobsite the ability to keep track of the completed and inspected construction areas, including the areas which are in progress of construction. In addition, the areas which are in non-conformance and require engineering evaluation can be noted.

What we do: We are the special independent inspectors having skills and ability to observe, test, document reports for high-rise projects from the beginning soils to final roof structural steel. We perform all type of inspection services. Our clients have the assurance of our qualified structural inspections.

Reinforcing Steel Inspection

Re-bar are steel bars of various diameters and lengths which have steel ribs that add to the bonding value of concrete for adhesion and additional strength. Reinforcing steel and concrete are bonded together by a mechanical connection.This provides the tensile properties which adds another element of strength to the concrete.

Field Concrete Testing

The testing of concrete at the construction site is to sample the freshly mixed concrete, check for slump, temperature and cast a set of cylinders for compressive strength verification. Slump is a field test to measure water quantity mixed within the concrete. This is mainly for field-use measurement as a guide for the work-ability of concrete.

Post-Tension Concrete

Post-tension concrete cables are long steel cable ropes, usually 1/2″ in diameter within a plastic protective grease coated sheathing. Post-tension concrete cables are a group of cable tendons placed within the concrete providing compression strength laterally. Post-tension concrete cables which are placed within the concrete allows the concrete to be elevated as it has compressive lateral strength.

Welding Inspection

Steel is the structural soundness and integrity of the building. If welding is not done by code or procedure it could result in defective work which would lead to the removal of weld areas by grinding and re-welding. As Certified Welding Inspectors Metzger Testing & Inspection can provide guidance to the contractor in producing a welding procedure specification…
