What We Look for During Kansas City Rooftop Anchor Inspections
Our Midwest climate in Kansas City and other surrounding communities can wreak havoc on rooftops—from wet and windy rainstorms to a high risk of tornados. Wikstrom Engineering knows the varied conditions your safety systems need to endure, and will check all rooftop anchors, davits, and tie-off for the following:
- Physical damage such as cracks and deformation that can negatively affect operation
- 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 and get them back into service, if needed. We will also provide full documentation including inspection/test results and logbooks for each building.
