In 1995 Pell Frischmann we were commissioned by Network Rail (formerly Railtrack) with regard the structural integrity of the Forth Bridge. The Forth Bridge is a Category A Listed structure and an iconic bridge that draws many tourists. As such it was imperative that any required works identified should be the minimum possible with regard visual impact.
