    Railway Communication Tower Inspection

    The ANSI/TIA 222 code calls for tower inspections to be completed at three-year intervals for guyed masts and five-year intervals for self-supporting structures and following severe weather or other extreme conditions. Tower inspections are vital to maintaining tower safety, performance and compliance. We perform a visual examination of tower members for bent, fractured, or missing pieces. We inspect for cracks in welds, and loose. Although TIA/EIA 222F has a suggested inspection checklist and some inspection contractors have extensive inventories of additional items that they will review, many tower firms have developed their own standard to provide continuity throughout their portfolio. Our maintenance services include:.
