The industry is moving in the right direction π
CSI pioneered ultrasonic testing for Drossbachs and contributed to the SESOC Guidance Papers that set the standard. A year on? We're seeing real results: better grouting quality, more QA at the construction phase, and greater confidence across the board.
It's what happens when consultants, contractors, researchers, and industry bodies collaborate with intent.
This is how New Zealand's built environment gets better.

How strong is your slab, really? ποΈ
Non-destructive testing (NDT) lets engineers figure out exactly what a concrete slab can handle - without drilling, coring, or damaging the structure.
Our latest blog walks through the full workflow: baseline surveys, material characterisation, strain + deflection monitoring, and what changes when you can only access the slab from above.
