5-Year Major EWP Inspections on the Gold Coast

Gold Coast's sustained high-rise and coastal construction means machines in the market have worked hard — vibration from concrete work, salt air from the beachfront blocks, and sustained use over a five or six-year period. Whether a particular machine needs a 5 or 10-year major inspection depends on the equipment class, but the structural assessment that teardown provides is the only way to find what five years of that work environment has done to welds, pins and load-bearing sections not visible from outside.

EWP Australia carries out 5-year major inspections across the Gold Coast, confirming the applicable interval for each equipment class before work begins. The inspection covers teardown-level examination of structural and load-bearing components, NDT of welds and critical pins, and documentation that establishes a new inspection baseline — structured for the compliance reviews Gold Coast's principal contractors run on plant entering their sites.
