Wooden floor testing

Andy Painting

A unique opportunity

The testing team at Attis were honoured today to be invited to the stunning Hampton Court Palace. Here, in a part of the building designed by Sir Christopher Wren, we were able to demonstrate our testing methodology on a very old wooden floor.


Our methodology measures frequency response to determine the stiffness and therefore residual strength of structures. This means that there is no need to rely on assumptions about the building or the materials used in it, especially the strength of wood which is difficult to predict.



The level of accuracy combined with valuable output data is delivered by a completely non-destructive methodology. Just right for a world famous but fragile historic building.
