5-Year Major EWP Inspections in Hobart

For a Tasmanian operator with machines approaching a mid-life inspection milestone, the logistics of getting a major inspection done shouldn't require sending the machine to the mainland. Hobart's fleet runs under the same major-inspection obligations as every other state, and the class-specific interval — whether that's 5 or 10 years depending on the machine's equipment class — applies from the date the obligation falls due, not from when it's convenient to organise.

EWP Australia carries out 5-year major inspections across Hobart and southern Tasmania, confirming the applicable interval for each equipment class before work starts. The inspection includes teardown assessment of structural and load-bearing components, NDT of welds and critical sections, and documentation that establishes a new inspection baseline — the same scope as any mainland equivalent.

FAQs

5-Year Major Inspections in Hobart — Common Questions

Do Hobart machines need to go to the mainland for a major inspection?

No — major inspections are carried out in southern Tasmania. The scope is identical to what a mainland operator receives.

How far in advance should a Hobart major inspection be booked?

As soon as the milestone is approaching — major inspections require more lead time than annual checks because of the teardown scope. Booking ahead allows downtime to be planned and the machine positioned appropriately.
