New Frosio inspectors at the IFO

Motorway bridge closed! – The closure of a motorway bridge can have far-reaching consequences: longer journey times and significant economic damage. The complete closure of the A45 in South Westphalia has demonstrated this very clearly.

Many steel structures are critical to the system and require regular inspections to detect damage at an early stage and prevent total failure. These inspections are carried out by certified specialists who have been assessed in accordance with FROSIO, NACE and DINCertco standards. The requirements for professional competence are also governed by the forthcoming ISO 24959 standard.

We are delighted that our colleagues, Oliver Bögler and Stefan Merger, have successfully completed their training as FROSIO inspectors at SLV Duisburg and, thanks to their professional experience, have gone straight to Expert Level III. Congratulations! Both are now supporting our team of qualified inspectors in accordance with NACE, FROSIO and DINCertco standards.
