Come hang out with our climbing inspectors and BaTMan! 🦇 Bridge inspectors David Detterberg and Jarmo Koskinen recently performed a main inspection of Oceanpiren in Helsingborg, Sweden. The bridge is a unique construction consisting of a 220-metres-long pedestrian and bicycle bridge floating above the water. During the inspection a few shortcomings were detected in relations to maintenance such as the lack of attachment points for climbers and ladders. “These experiences are valuable in coming bridge designs. It is important that inspection and documentation of maintenance of the bridge is thought into the design early in the process,” says David Detterberg. After the inspection, all information is documented in the BaTMan (Bridge and Tunnel Management) system for Trafikverket (the Swedish road) directory, which is also used by some Swedish municipalities. The inspection team included David Detterberg, Jarmo Koskinen, Birgitta Rörström, Stefan Birgersson and Ozan Altan.
