Material Technologies (MTTG.OB) reports that the Company recently met with representatives of the Montana Department of Transportation to discuss the technical, economic, and safety advantages of its revolutionary Electrochemical Fatigue Sensor(TM)(EFS). Like many State DOTs, the Montana DOT manages many thousands of bridges.
MATECH’s proprietary EFS inspection system can satisfy new bridge inspection needs set forth by the $286 billion U.S. Transportation Bill, known as SAFETEA-LU, signed into law in late 2005. The legislation requires, among others, that the Federal Highway Administration investigate and recommend technologies for the assessment of fatigue cracks in steel bridges.
MATECH is an engineering, research and development company specializing in technologies to monitor metal fatigue in real time. The company’s leading edge metal fatigue detection and monitoring solutions can accurately test the integrity of metal structures and equipment including bridges, railroads, airplanes, ships, cranes, power plants, mining equipment, and heavy iron.
