Leica Geosystems, the leading Swiss manufacturer of surveying instruments and measurement tools, has launched a new warranty and service package for its range of construction-related products.

Protect by 265 Leica Geosystems offers a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty, no cost for product repairs and maintenance associated with normal conditions of use, and certified quality. Makers of products to tackle onsite positioning, measuring, levelling, aligning and plumbing tasks, Leica Geosystems’ Protect package is said by the firm to be the best among its peers.

The free repair service includes the repair or replacement of all defective parts; product adjustment and calibration; a thorough functional test and safety check; maintenance, cleaning of product and carrying case.

Leica Geosystems runs calibration laboratories (No. SCS079), and a test laboratory (No. STS549).  All are fully accredited by the SAS (Swiss Accreditation Service). The calibration and test certificates issued by Leica Geosystems are officially and internationally recognized for horizon, angle, distance, frequency, and laser classification. This confirmation of precision is said by the company to guarantee the highest possible reliability for its products. All laboratories are regularly controlled by an independent national institution according to ISO 17025.

    How best is it possible to assess the state of concrete in a road pavement, bridge deck or tunnel wall? One of the most reliable ways is to take a core of concrete from the structure to analyse and test in the laboratory. One downside to this method is that doing the test creates weak points in the structure that must then be repaired. Another is that the frequency of such cores cannot be too great – so it is possible that some problem areas will be missed. New technologies from the world of geospatial eng

    Modern technology is making testing more efficient and reliable, increasing productivity and reducing costs, as Patrick Smith reports A few years ago, visual inspection of an 18-year-old bridge by ARRB in Australia identified considerable cracking in the precast, prestressed deck planks as well as in the cast in situ deck overlay. Laboratory examination indicated that the deck planks and the deck overlay were suffering from a strong case of alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR). Testing of concrete cores drilled
