Attis delivered a highly responsive and non-intrusive structural assessment of an existing crane gantry of the refit dock at His Majesty’s Naval Base Portsmouth. Using advanced, non-destructive testing techniques, our team gathered high-quality structural data while maintaining full operational continuity within this busy Royal Navy facility.

A detailed survey of the gantry and associated dock supports was provided, alongside the verification of load capacities for the supported concrete deck and metal walkway. The outcome was a concise and definitive understanding of structural performance, enabling safe, informed asset management decisions without impacting critical maintenance activities.

"The testing of the gantry structure was carried out professionally and without disruption to ongoing naval base operations. The verified loading capacities have enabled KBS Maritime to inform the asset management plan and to prioritize repairs. This in turn allows us to identify temporary solutions in order to receive Royal Navy vessels into the dock for planned repairs without delay or disruption.”
