Concrete Scanning Services
We employ the latest in technology Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to allow for the detection , depth and location of steel reinforcing, electrical conduits and post tensioning cables. Other than for rebar location, this is used in a variety of manners from ensuring that the area is free of hidden objects before core drilling in supermarkets and buildings, to estimation of slab thickness and detection of piles.
A recent example of other benefits of GPR is on a bridge where a timber pile rotted away, producing a large void detected by the scanner during reinforcement location. Subsequent exposure of the pile revealed the full extent of the damage as shown below:
