Civil Engineering

Civil Engineering covers a wide range of applications including:

• Bridges
• Lighting Columns
• Communication Masts
• Cranes
• Railway Infrastructure
• Highway Sign Gantries
• Playground Equipment.

These situations all require frequent surveys of the metal structures to assess metal reduction due to corrosion, damage or wear.

See Weathering Steel for Highway Structures - Residual Steel Thickness Measurement Using Ultrasonic Gauges.

Cygnus gauges provide the ideal instrument for this kind of survey work, measuring through paint and protective coatings. Our Multiple Echo technique ensures a reliable thickness reading is given.

• The Cygnus Heavy Duty is ideal for use in Harsh or Extreme environments.
• The Cygnus 2 Hands Free is ideal for Rope Access or Belt Mounted work with its end-on display.
• The Cygnus 3 Datalogger is ideal for recording measurements for later downloading to a computer.
• The Cygnus 4 General Purpose is a good all-round general purpose thickness gauge with a backlit LCD display.
