Inspection and diagnosis of wooden structures

In all interventions on existing buildings, it is necessary to obtain a starting point for decision-making. Understanding the state of preservation and pathologies in the wooden structure and its load bearing capacity is essential in order to consider all of the necessary preservation and restoration actions.

Our technicians use the most innovative instrumentation to prepare precise reports on pathologies, state of preservation and resistance of existing wooden structures.
