Dilapidation Study

About Us Dilapidation Studies

 

Fugro PMS own all the necessary survey equipment to perform Dilapidation Studies, and the necessary expertise and experience to perform the analysis.

A dilapidation study typically occurs in two stages:

Stage One:  Prior to the increased volumes and/or weights being applied to the pavement.  The Stage One deliverables to the client are current condition data, and if structural testing has been performed,   Remaining Life.

Stage Two: Once the task or project has been completed – this can be as little as days part or even years.   The section is re-tested to determine the effect (if any) of the increased volumes and/or weights.  The deliverables at this stage are once again, current condition data, and if relevant Remaining Life, however they are accompanied by a written condition report which compares the condition data (and if relevant Remaining Life) from both stages and examines the level of deterioration (if any) that has occurred above expected levels.

These studies serve as independent engineering evidence for all stakeholders that fair and reasonable accountability can be apportioned if indeed accelerated deterioration is evident.

Dilapidation Studies are often required for Section 94 contributions.
