TechKnowServ provides inspection of wood utility poles using state-of-the-art instruments to evaluate the quality of timber and level of wood decay present in determining whether the pole should be replaced or repaired.

TKS engineers and nondestructive testing technicians have power piping inspection experience with conventional testing methods and advanced techniques like phased array ultrasound and time-of-flight diffraction.

TKS staff have the qualifications and experience to perform phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) and time-of-flight diffraction (TOFD) on power piping seam and girth welds to find service-related weld and heat-affected zone (HAZ) flaws.
