Structural Assessment for Pier Certification

PIER #5

Rhoads Marine Industries

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Pier #5 | As required by ordinance in the City of Philadelphia, waterfront structures are subject to triennial inspections to ensure there are no hazards to occupants of non-vacant piers.  SSM commenced this process using three-dimensional scanning of the surface of the pier to locate and identify the magnitude of surface irregularities in pier.  The framed construction of the pier requires inspection of the underside via boat at favorable tide and dive monitoring for the supporting piles.
