The contract encompasses the testing of welding seams and concrete strength, as well as bolt torque inspection and has been scheduled for completion by the end of March 2012.

Work began on February 12th, the date that the contract was awarded by the State Committee on Properties Management.
The State Committee on Properties Management, which is a division of the Cabinet of Azerbaijan, regulates property issues and policy within the Azerbaijan Republic, and chose SGS due to their extensive experience and expertise in quality assurance and quality control, as well as non-destructive testing.
SGS had provided the State Committee with satisfactory work in the past, resulting in confidence in the services SGS provides. Qualified specialists have been contracted to determine problem areas and report back to the client. Feedback will result in the repair of welding seams and verification of proper tightening of bolts for components that do not comply to quality and safety requirements.
The team of SGS’s experts provides non-destructive testing of welding seams, concrete strength checking, paint thickness inspection, visual inspection of engineering systems and bolt torque inspection in accordance with thorough and stringent criteria.
With on-site inspection services for welding and bolt connections during the construction of the press center, the risk of defects will be minimized. Furthermore, contracting a third-party inspection company that utilizes state-of-the-art non-destructive testing techniques such as ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle inspection and visual inspection ensures client confidence and satisfaction.
