On-Site Floor Load Testing for Verified Strength and Occupant Safety
When it comes to ensuring structural reliability and safety, on-site floor load testing provides the most accurate way to verify a floor's ability to support its intended loads. Whether you’re commissioning a new structure, repurposing a building, or addressing regulatory requirements, our floor load testing services deliver real-world data that confirms your floors meet design specifications and building codes. Commonly used in commercial buildings, warehouses, mezzanines, and industrial facilities, this testing gives engineers, property owners, and inspectors peace of mind that the structure is safe, compliant, and fit for use.
How Floor Load Testing Works
Our team conducts load testing by carefully applying calibrated weights—either water tanks or steel loads—across the test area, simulating expected live and dead loads in accordance with standards like BS 5975. We monitor deflection and floor movement in real-time using precision instruments to assess performance under stress. The process is non-destructive and controlled, with safety measures in place throughout. After testing, we provide a comprehensive report detailing load levels, deflection results, and pass/fail conclusions. Whether for new construction or existing floor systems, our on-site load testing ensures your structure is strong, safe, and ready for occupancy or operation.
