STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY AUDITS AND ASSURANCE

Managing risks and guaranteeing the safety, longevity, and compliance of assets is critical. Wentworth’s team of specialists works with leading materials suppliers to provide innovative solutions for repairing and strengthening damaged or deficient structures. We use a variety of materials, including fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP) to strengthen structures internally and externally.

Safety, longevity, and regulatory compliance

Safety, longevity, and regulatory compliance
Independent structural assessments
Wentworth’s structural integrity audits provide a clear, independent assessment of the structural reliability of commercial, industrial, and infrastructure assets. We review structural form, materials, load paths, and condition, supported by site inspections and targeted inspections where required. This includes assessing deterioration, fatigue, corrosion, cracking and movement, alongside the impact of historic alterations or changes in use.

At the London Museum, Wentworth assessed deterioration within an existing historic structure to understand residual capacity and inform intervention strategies to extend the building’s lifespan and preserve the structural fabric's design life for generations to come.

Forensic engineering and complex risk resolution
When performance issues emerge or safety concerns escalate, determining the root cause requires more than visual inspection. Wentworth diagnoses structural performance issues through detailed investigation, material testing and structural monitoring. Our Wentworth Labs capability means we can verify material properties, test structural components under load, and monitor behaviour during operational conditions.

Extending asset life through strategic intervention
Our intervention strategies extend an asset's life and ensure operational continuity. This could be strengthening for increased loads, stabilising deteriorating elements, or upgrading to meet current safety standards. The earlier you bring us in, the more technical challenges we can overcome.

We understand access constraints, phasing requirements, and how to strengthen structures while they remain operational. By understanding how structures interact with their environment and combining cutting-edge engineering analysis with practical solutions, we help you extend asset life, maintain value, and remain compliant.
