On-Site Inspection + Testing


Ensuring that your structures are safe on site, SSL engineers deliver a unique perspective, skill-set and experience. Our on-site inspections utilise two sets of skills and knowledge – those of traditional permanent structures, and those of temporary membrane structures, which of course operate in a very different way. Few traditional engineers have expertise in this niche area of temporary membrane / tensile structures.

SSL Services:

  • Inspection of the structure installed on-site:

    • BS EN 13782:2015 Standard conformity.

    • Installation according to the Tent Book (calcs, drawings, etc).

    • Event ‘Sign-Off’ for safety.

    • Emergency Plan procedures knowledge.

      • Prevention.

      • Mitigation.

      • Preparedness.

      • Response.

      • Recovery.

  • Inspecting the structure installation site:

    • Conditions (heat, wind, snow loading, etc.).

    • Installation method/s.

    • Maintenance.

    • Emergency Plan procedures knowledge.

  • Inspecting the context / additions for interference with the structure:

    • Technical components (lighting, sound, etc).

    • Interior architecture and décor installation.

  • Testing / simulating weather conditions.

  • Remodelling and sign-off of specific structures on-site (custom certification for each structure).

  • On-call Emergency Support.

Resulting in a dated report for inclusion in the structure’s Tent Book.
