Bridge & structure inspection | Digital asset intelligence
More than an inspection. A better record of your asset.
TotalStruct combines specialist bridge and structural inspection with a purpose-built digital workflow. Condition, defects and photographs are captured once, reviewed by engineers and kept as part of the asset's ongoing history.

Why TotalStruct?
We do not just deliver an inspection report.
Many inspection engagements end when the report is issued. We turn each inspection into a living asset record that can be reviewed, reported, tracked and used for future maintenance decisions.
- Capture once.
- Defects stay with the asset.
- Use your inspectors or ours.
- Engineering judgement stays human.
Capture once
No rebuilding field notes, defect registers and photo schedules from separate sources.
Engineer-reviewed
Technology assists the workflow; inspection judgement, review and QA remain engineering-led.
Live asset history
Condition, defects, photos and reports stay connected to the structure for future reference.
Your delivery model
Engage TotalStruct to inspect, or let your qualified inspectors work within the same platform.
Where the information goes
The inspection should not end at the PDF.
Show how the information moves: one record from site to asset history, instead of four disconnected files.
- Field notes
- Spreadsheets
- Photo folders
- One structured record
- Review
- Report
- Asset history
Three ways to work with us
One platform. Your inspectors or ours.
The same structured workflow supports inspections delivered by TotalStruct, by independent inspectors, or by an asset owner's own qualified team.

TotalStruct Managed inspection service
TotalStruct inspects for you
TotalStruct undertakes the inspection, defect capture, engineering review and reporting — while keeping a structured digital history against the asset.
- Field inspection
- Defect capture & photos
- Engineering review / QA
- Final report
- Ongoing asset visibility
- 02
Inspector platform
For qualified inspectors
Qualified inspectors use a structured digital workflow to capture condition, defects and photographs in the field and carry that information through to reporting.
- Your own clients & projects
- Structured Level 1 / Level 2 data
- Field capture to draft report
- Data hosted and managed by TotalStruct
- 03
Asset owner platform
For asset owners
Councils and asset owners keep visibility of structures, inspection history, defects, reports and maintenance priorities in one environment.
- Asset register
- Inspection history
- Defect tracking
- Condition visibility
- Maintenance planning
How it works
One workflow from site to asset decision.
The digital record begins in the field and follows the information through defect capture, engineering review, reporting and ongoing asset management.
- 01
Prepare
Asset information, previous records and inspection scope are available before fieldwork.
- 02
Inspect
Capture component condition, defects, measurements, notes and photo evidence at the source.
- 03
Review
Office engineers review field findings in the same record without rebuilding the inspection.
- 04
Report
AI-assisted drafting turns structured data into a report framework for engineering review and QA.
- 05
Retain
Issued information stays attached to the asset, building a progressively richer history.
- 06
Act
Asset owners see open defects, inspection history and what matters for maintenance planning.
The platform is not intended to replace engineering judgement. It removes avoidable administration around that judgement and preserves the information engineers create.
Inspection services
Specialist inspections that leave better information behind.
- Bridges
- Culverts
- Other structures
Level 1 inspections
Routine visual inspection and condition monitoring to identify deterioration, damage or changes that need attention.
Level 2 inspections
Detailed component-level inspection recording condition states, defects, extent, photographs and recommendations.
Reporting & close-out
The report is produced from the inspection record — not reconstructed after the fieldwork — then reviewed and issued.
Product proof
The actual TotalStruct workflow.
Component condition on the office screen, defect capture in the field, and a portfolio dashboard — all from the same record.
The difference
Your final PDF is a deliverable. Your structured inspection data is the long-term value.

Insights
Practical notes on inspection and asset management.
- Inspections
Understanding Level 1 and Level 2 inspections
What each inspection level covers, what it records, and when a Level 3 investigation is warranted.
- Defects
Common bridge defects
Joints, bearings, barriers and wearing surfaces — what deterioration looks like and how it is recorded.
- Asset management
From inspection report to maintenance plan
Turning condition states and recommendations into prioritised, trackable maintenance actions.
