Ensuring Safety, Reliability, and Top-Level Performance
At Versabar, we provide Proof Load Testing and Inspection services to ensure the safety, reliability, and top-level performance of your equipment.
Whether you’re verifying newly fabricated components or evaluating the structural integrity of an existing system, our comprehensive proof load testing solutions give you the confidence that your equipment is fit for the task at hand.
What is Proof Load Testing?
Proof Load Testing involves loading lifting equipment, structural assemblies, or individual components to a predetermined load that exceeds the rated working load in order to verify its strength, durability, and safety.
This testing is essential for ensuring that all equipment meets or exceeds industry safety standards before use in critical applications. It’s a vital step in confirming that your gear will perform as required under real-world conditions.

Our Proof Load Testing Capabilities
At Versabar, we specialize in both static and dynamic proof load testing for a wide range of equipment and structures.
Our testing is performed under controlled, safe conditions, using calibrated instruments to ensure precise and reliable results. Our range of test machines can provide vertical or horizontal test loads ranging from hundreds of pounds to thousands of tons.
Lifting Beams & Spreader Bars
We can simulate the exact configuration in which your equipment will be used and verify that it can handle the intended load distribution as designed.
Slings & Shackles
Slings, shackles, link plates, and other rigging components can be tested to ensure they can safely handle the maximum load expected in the field.
Structural Assemblies & Components
We test the integrity of structures such as skids, reels, towers, beams, hoists, and foundations to ensure they can safely handle the maximum load expected in the field.
Custom Equipment
If you have specialized equipment or custom-designed components, we offer tailored testing solutions to suit your needs.
Our Process
Initial Assessment & Consultation
We work with you to understand the specific requirements of your load testing needs, including load capacities and the type of equipment to be tested.
Test Design
Our tenured engineering staff designs a testing program based on your inputs.
Set-Up & Testing
Our experienced technicians set up the equipment in a safe, controlled environment in accordance with the test design. Using precision equipment, we carefully apply a desired load to simulate real-world operating conditions.
Monitoring & Data Collection
During testing, we carefully monitor the equipment for any signs of stress, deformation, or failure. We collect detailed data throughout the process for analysis and reporting.
Reporting & Certification
After testing, we provide a comprehensive report, including test certificates, inspection findings, and any recommendations for maintenance or repairs. Upon successful completion, we issue a Proof Load Test Certificate, ensuring your equipment is certified for use.
