Specialist UKAS ISO 17025 accredited pendulum slip testing for personal injury claims, expert witness reports, post-incident assessments, pre-action disclosure, defendant insurer testing. Slip-related personal-injury claims continue to make up the largest single category of UK public-liability insurance loss.
Expert evidence under cpr part 35 must be impartial, independent, and directed to the court — not to the instructing party. The duty-holder is regulated by the Civil Procedure Rules, particularly CPR Part 35, and the courts, and the evidential standard expected of any slip-risk assessment scales accordingly.
Typical surfaces in this sector include any surface relevant to a pleaded claim, with chain-of-custody documentation. Typical risk vectors are loss of evidence due to remediation, refurbishment or routine cleaning before testing can occur. Our reports cover all of the above with photographic evidence, calibrated PTV data, and UKSRG classification.
Our pendulum testing follows BS EN 16165:2021 Annex C as the primary method, with BS 7976-2:2002+A1:2013 available where preferred (e.g. legacy specifications, earlier insurer requirements). All work is performed under our UKAS ISO 17025 accreditation, with calibration certificates referenced on every report.
For this sector specifically: rapid mobilisation, full chain-of-custody evidence pack, witness-statement-suitable narrative report.
