Structural assessment

Assess today to build sustainably tomorrow.

Structural assessment is an essential step to understand the behavior of a structure, identify the causes of defects, and ensure its long-term safety. Through an approach combining technical expertise, field investigations, and advanced technologies, INGELCIS supports project owners, architects, local authorities, and companies in the evaluation, rehabilitation, and long-term preservation of their structures.

Each assignment is carried out with precision to provide a reliable assessment, accurate recommendations, and solutions tailored to the requirements of your project.

Understand the condition of your structure to better preserve it.

Structural diagnostics make it possible to assess the actual condition of a structure, identify the causes of defects, and propose appropriate technical solutions to ensure its safety, stability, and durability.

Through an approach combining visual inspections, on-site investigations, non-destructive testing, instrumented measurements, and technical analyses, INGELCIS supports project owners, architects, local authorities, and companies in the assessment and rehabilitation of all types of structures.

Our engineers work on buildings, civil engineering structures, infrastructure, industrial facilities, and existing heritage assets to provide reliable diagnostics, precise recommendations, and solutions tailored to the specific requirements of each project.

Why a diagnostic?

Informed decisions for your structure

Safety

Assess risks to users and the structure.

Precise Analysis

Identify the root causes of structural defects.

Durability

Extend the lifespan of the structure with appropriate solutions.

Compliance

Assess the condition and load-bearing capacity before work begins.

Interventions

For all types of structures

Reporting

A comprehensive analysis to support decision-making

Each diagnostic provides a clear understanding of the causes, risks, and recommended solutions.

1

Causes Identified

Determine the actual root causes of the observed defects.

2

Risks Assessed

Evaluate the level of criticality for the structure and its use.

3

Proposed Solutions

Appropriate repair, strengthening, or rehabilitation solutions.

Our reports include findings, measurements, drawings, photographs, and technical recommendations to
support informed decision-making.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

In the event of cracks, settlement, deformation, before major renovation work, after damage or an incident, or to verify load-bearing capacity before changing structural loads.

We prioritize non-destructive methods (GPR, Ferroscan, and structural monitoring). Core drilling or material sampling is recommended only when it is necessary to obtain essential information.
