The latest technology, along with the skills of GPR Arkansas & Geotechnical Services, offer safety and convenience when you use concrete slab scanning services to evaluate your project’s future.
Concrete slab scanning uses ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to look below the surface of your work area to detect the structure of the concrete itself or to map out materials and voids within the project area. GPR can detect electrical conduits, cables, rebar, or voids.
Before you tackle any project that would compromise the strength of the concrete within, it is necessary to use GPR to scan before cutting, coring, or drilling to keep the strength of the structure intact. Damaging cables or rebar could cause immediate structure failure or severe worker injury.
The concrete slab scanning procedure is handled by a device passed over the exposed surface of the concrete.
This ground-penetrating radar sends a signal below. The signal gets reflected back to the device in various patterns that indicate the type of material and its location. With their vast experience, our technicians will determine exactly what lies beneath to avoid unnecessary work or danger.
We can also use GPR in vertical concrete situations, such as pillars or columns, or on the underside of flooring.
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) isn’t only used for commercial building projects. This technology is also beneficial in residential situations. GPR will help homeowners locate electrical wires, fiber optic networks, cable TV lines, water lines, or any other unknown hazard.
Each concrete project is unique. We can help you plan ahead and avoid complications, saving you time and money. Contact GPR Arkansas & Geotechnical Services for a quote, and let us make your job easier.
