Kent Crane inspectors hold state and federal certifications. Kent Crane engineers are professional engineers (P.E), certified weld inspectors (CWI) and certified welding engineers (CWEng), in addition to holding crane inspector certifications. Our team has over 50 years of crane inspection and engineering experience. Because of our well-rounded team, our inspectors receive training in welding and manufacturing from our engineering staff. When the Bellevue tower crane fell in 2006, Kent Crane engineers were the first experts called to the scene the evening of the accident. Since that time, we have provided third-party inspection, certification, and engineering services for tower, mobile, overhead, and maritime cranes, and cargo material handling equipment across the United States. The Kent Crane team includes four crane inspectors and three licensed engineers specializing in cranes, welding, material testing, metallurgy, mechanical systems, and structures. 

Our team of experts provides inspection, certification, and engineering services for cranes, hoists, and other lifting equipment. We conduct thorough visual and functional assessments of equipment and provide our clients with detailed reporting documents. Our inspectors stay up to date with all state and federal OSHA standards and regulations to ensure the safest possible environment for workers and bystanders. They hold certifications in Washington State and Federal OSHA for all types of construction and maritime equipment.
