Steelwork Strengthening

Spencer Bridge Engineering has unrivalled technical capability in the execution of steel-work strengthening works on bridges, self-delivered utilising our own in-house welding qualifications and NDT procedures in accordance with our NHSS 20, BS EN ISO 3834-2 and BS EN 1090-2 accreditations. We follow our own company NDT procedures and have a fully qualified inspection workforce in both CSWIP and PCN certifications, qualified to carry out visual and NDT inspections on major bridges and structures.

The quality of steel-work strengthening on major bridges is paramount to ensure the design life of the structure is maintained. Their location is often in highly corrosive marine environments and subject to fatigue loading, therefore the quality of the inspections and welding repair works must be of a high standard. Integrated with our delivery teams, our structural engineers, metallurgists and welding engineers provide technical support and guidance on achieving quality levels to our clients.

Coupled with the utilisation of our bespoke access solutions, painting capability and temporary works execution, we are able to provide a comprehensive self-delivery offering to our clients for all steel-work strengthening and welding requirements.

Our team engages with key stakeholders throughout the project cycle to consider access, plant, site constraints and environmental impacts associated with steel-work strengthening activities, for every project we undertake.
