Structural Technology, Inc.
offers a Safety
Inspection program that meets current NFPA guidelines for performing operational
tests and inspections on aerial
devices. In order for firemen to perform their duties under extreme
conditions, the equipment must be able to meet the challenge. Safety is of
utmost importance therefore the equipment must be safe. In order to prevent
potential catastrophic failures, the equipment must be tested and inspected to
identify potential problems before injuries or failure occur. A quality testing
and inspection program may also prevent units from untimely “out of service”
problems and can save Fire Departments money because of early detection before
major problems develop.
Every inspection that we perform fulfills the requirements of the NFPA "5-year"
inspection.
Our safety inspection program
is performed “on-site” as directed by each fire department with the necessary
equipment to perform the required tests and inspections. Our Technicians are
SNT-TC-1A and CP-189 certified and are trained to work efficiently and safely in
any work environment.
