Since 1989, BDI has been providing cost-effective diagnostic load testing services all over the world. We’ve developed the field equipment and analytical software to deliver results in the most efficient way possible.

Field tests are completed with a readily available vehicle and the data used to calibrate a finite element model of the structure. Based on the field-calibrated model, accurate load ratings are determined.

  • Evaluate effectiveness of strengthening and other repairs
  • Overload and permit loads
  • Accurate load ratings HS-20 and any other design vehicles

Whether you’re evaluating a steel, concrete, timber, or composite fiber bridge, BDI makes an excellent team partner for DOT’s, design firms, and university researchers.
