What We Look for During Greater Seattle Rooftop Anchor Inspections
Unpredictable Seattle weather? Your roof has to withstand a lot. Wikstrom Engineering knows about the harsh conditions your safety system needs to endure, and will check all rooftop anchors, davits, and tie-offs for the following:
- Physical damage such as cracks and deformation that can negatively affect operation
- Excessive corrosion or wear and tear that may affect strength or operation
- Examine fasteners for tightness, corrosion, damage, or wear and tear
- Examine welds for corrosion, cracks, damage, or wear and tear
Once inspections or testing has been completed, we will provide information on any identified problems and make recommendations to address any areas of concern for getting them back into service. We will also provide full documentation including inspection/test results and logbooks for each building.
