Structural Inspections
				Structural Inspections
LEC offers structural engineering services for inspection of existing structures. 
Non-destructive testing, in some cases, can provide the information necessary to 
evaluate the condition of existing structural elements.  Structural assessments will 
reveal damage caused by a variety of factors, including high winds, 
flood waters, ground settlement, insects, and other causes.  Structures which are 
sound can be issued a structural engineers certificate, which is often required for 
builders risk insurance.
An inspection may be needed or required after the structure experiences:
- Hurricane Force Wind
 - Storm Surge
 - Tornado
 - Fire
 - Extensive Termite Damage
 - Settlement
 
A structural inspection is often the first step to designing a renovation or repair.
We have extensive experience with Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) and can provide third party
inspections of FRP that is installed by a contractor.
