structural integrity assessment

Structural integrity assessment is the process of evaluating whether a building, bridge, or other structure is safely capable of withstanding its expected loads and conditions over time. It involves inspecting and testing the materials and design to identify any weaknesses, damage, or deterioration that could compromise safety. The goal is to ensure the structure remains stable, secure, and functional throughout its lifespan. This assessment helps prevent failures or collapses by addressing issues before they become critical, ensuring the safety of occupants and users while complying with engineering standards and regulations.
