Bridge Inspections - RSI

Other Areas

For PLaN, RSI carried out detailed post tensioned inspection work to Clifton Bridge , which carries
part of the A52 northbound Nottingham ring road
traffic and the merging eastbound A453 traffic over
the River Trent. With over 80,000 vehicles a day
using this structure, it forms a major link in
Nottinghams road network system.

Other inspection work for PLaN included a post
tension inspection investigation to Winthorpe Bridge
on the A1 and non-destructive testing, sampling with subsequent laboratory analysis of collected samples
from several structures along the A453.

In what was previously known as Area 17, RSI
Ltd was sub-contracted by Scott Wilson Kirkpatrick
& Co, under Edmund Nutall Ltd to carry out post tensioned inspections to several structures within
the area. This was based upon a study by the HA
outlining the susceptibility of corrosion to post-
tensioned structures. Roads included the M6, M58,
M65, A56 and A5036.

As well as MAC areas, RSI Ltd has also carried out inspections for local authorities, particularly Leicestershire County Council. Many of these
inspections were classified as confined space entry, which RSI inspection staff are fully qualified in. Some
such structures included manhole-entry culverts
beneath public areas in Loughborough town centre.
