Extraction Test

Pull-Out Testing

The pull-out test, also known as Pull-Out Testing, aims to evaluate the behavior of the profiles used in the support structures of tables or panels in behavior of the profiles used in the support structures of tables or panels in photovoltaic installations photovoltaic installations. The characteristics of the different types of terrain and the type of profile used are considered type of profile used are considered. 

Atmospheric corrosivity

Wire-on-Bolt

The Wire-on-Bolt test is traditionally used to monitor and evaluate the corrosivity of the environment in steel structures corrosivity of the environment in steel structures. The interpretation of the results is based on the percentage of mass loss, normalized to 90 days of exposure, of aluminum wire samples loss in mass, normalized to 90 days of exposure, of aluminum wire specimens wrapped around steel and/or copper bolts wire samples wrapped around steel and/or copper bolts.

Hydrological impact
