How will the memorial inspection be carried out?
The process will consist of: Visual inspection Manual stability test (Hand test) Measured pressure test The industry agreed safety standard for measured pressure testing (based on advice from the Health & Safety Executive / Institute for Cemetery and Crematorium Management) is a pressure of 35kg applied using an appropriate measuring device. All testing is carried out by trained staff using specialist equipment. Every effort will be made to contact the owners of memorials that have failed a stability test and offer advice on what to do next.
