NDT & Load Testing on the Gold Coast
Salt air is the Gold Coast's structural tax. Machines working beachfront towers absorb chloride corrosion into welds, pins and box sections that paint hides and pre-starts miss — and corrosion pits are where fatigue cracks start. On a boom holding two workers over a Surfers Paradise street, that chain of events is exactly what crack testing exists to interrupt.
EWP Australia delivers magnetic particle, dye penetrant and eddy current testing plus certified load testing for EWPs and cranes across the Gold Coast, from the Yatala corridor to Burleigh. Coastal machines get testing scopes weighted to salt-driven failure points, and reports arrive formatted for tower-project compliance reviews.
NDT & Load Testing — The Scope
- Magnetic particle, dye penetrant and eddy current crack testing
- NDT of booms, welds, pins, bosses, chassis and outrigger structures
- Load testing to rated capacity with certified weights
- Testing as part of annual, 5-year and 10-year major inspections
- Reports that identify exactly what was tested, where and to what method
- Repair recommendations when indications are found — not just a fail stamp

NDT & Load Testing in Gold Coast — Common Questions
How often should a beachfront-working machine be crack tested?
At its mandated milestones as a floor — and condition-driven testing sooner if corrosion history or duty suggests it. We can assess a coastal machine and give you a straight recommendation.
Can you test machines already up on Gold Coast tower projects?
Site testing is routine where access and safety allow — tell us the project's induction and access requirements and we plan the visit around them.
