Concrete Imaging Project in Miami, Florida
GPR Scanning Services, LLC completed a concrete scan at the Dolphin Mall in Miami, Florida. A retail store was being renovated and the mall required non-destructive testing prior to saw cutting. The customer was installing new electrical lines and moving the location of the employee restroom. The technician was able to scan the trenches for live power and other conduits. The existing plumbing lines were located and marked so the lines would not be damaged during saw cutting. GPR only requires access to one side of the concrete and is the established method for concrete imaging of slab on grade concrete. The gpr signal is able to penetrate through the concrete slab and locate any conduits in and directly below the concrete. Ground penetrating radar can also locate pt cables and rebar inside the concrete. A utility wand was used to detect live power in and around the trench areas. The use of GPR and electromagnetic induction together, ensures the safety of the customer and the saw cutting crew. The gpr scanning service was completed in real time and during regular mall hours. Ground penetrating radar poses no health or safety concerns and can be completed while other contractors continue to work nearby. This eliminates downtime and extra costs involved with traditional concrete x-ray service.
GPR Scanning Services, LLC also provides concrete scanning services to locate voids in and below concrete, verify spacing and depth of reinforcing steel along with thickness of the concrete. GPR concrete scanning also assists with locating safe areas to drill and anchor into the concrete for windows, doors and wall placement.
