SIGNIFICANCE OF GPR SCANNING ON CONCRETE STRUCTURES +(571) 236-8522 concreteinsight.com

Introduction Concrete structure needs GPR scanning before core drilling to ensure safety and avoid the injuries, repairs and re-coring of the same structure. Here’s all you need to know about it.

01.

What is Concrete Scanning?

Concrete scanning, also known as GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) scanning, is a term which involves a wide range of nondestructive techniques to establish minute details with the concrete subsurface. It is more than just a rebar location.

02.

What does GPR Scanning Inspects?

GPR scanning helps inspects

Concrete structures.

Measure slab thickness.

Locate rebars, PT cables, conduits and voids.

The exact location of the utility is present in the concrete structure.

Air pockets and voids.

03.

How does a GPR for Concrete Scanning work?

GPR sends signals from a receiver to the surface.

The signal is bounced off of any material it meets on the surface.

The signal then creates a reading.

Experienced GPR technicians then interpret the reading.

Conclusion

To check the foundation of the construction there is a force required and used to pull the single bolt of the foundation. The separation occurs in between the anchor bolt and epoxy group itself.
