When is concrete scanning required?

Concrete Scanning

Concrete scanning may be required when:

  • Trying to locate embedded objects such as rebar, post-tension cables, or conduits

  • Assessing the condition of a concrete structure

  • Investigating potential damage or cracking in concrete

  • Planning demolition or repair work on a concrete structure
  • Trying to locate voids, honeycombs, or delaminations in concrete
  • Verifying the location of embedded pipes or other objects
  • Checking for settlement or heave in a concrete structure

Each of these situations can present unique challenges, and concrete scanning can effectively get the information you need to proceed with your project safely and efficiently.

How can concrete scanning help your project?

Scanned Concrete
  • It can help detect and identify any potential weaknesses or defects in concrete structures.
  • Help identify potential problems before they become serious issues.
  • By detecting hidden objects, voids, and cracks, concrete scanning can help ensure the safety of people and property.

  • It can help engineers and contractors plan repairs or renovations.
  • It provides a very comprehensive assessment of the condition of concrete structures.

Ground Penetrating Radar

How is concrete scanning carried out?

Ground Penetrating Radar

Concrete scanning is done using GPR or Ground Penetrating Radar which is non-damaging testing. With ground penetrating radar the antenna of the GPR is broadcasting electromagnetic pulses.

Electromagnetic pulses of the GPR are penetrating the surface under the antenna and they bounce off elements at depth. A signal is received by the antenna of the GPR and the information is presented on the screen of this machine as a response.

At Diesels, we use state of the art machinery allowing us to quickly and easily detect tension cables, conduits, reinforcing steel, live power, plumbing services and other utilities inside walls and other materials.

Concrete Scanning FAQs

Concrete scanning radar is able to discover possible problems prior to cutting, drilling, coring or demolishing. Professional concrete scanning which we offer will easily produce understandable, precise and accurate imaging reports from all kinds of structures.

Because modern buildings and construction sites are becoming more and more demanding and complex with a lot of out-of-sight components, it is extremely important to use GPR technology before making any modifications to detect all vulnerabilities related to electrical conduits, post tensioned cables, etc.

Detecting the “exit point” for core drilling through suspended slabs can also be accurately determined. This device takes the guesswork out of finding the exit point and possible damage or injury from concrete cores falling from height. The scanning machine can also determine slab thickness as well as find voids in concrete slabs and walls.

Yes we offer same day digital engineer’s reports. We can produce detailed, same day engineer’s reports with photos and descriptions of scan results for site/building/centre managers to reference. With professional technology and expertise in concrete scanning, our aim is to deliver the best quality service in this industry.

Yes, we use digital imaging software. Our concrete scanning services use digital imaging software that gives us an unmistakable and clear vision of the concrete wall or slab for further processing and analysis for engineering aims.

  • Detection of hidden or embedded objects
  • Detection of voids or cracks
  • Assessment of the condition of the concrete
  • Detects any potential concrete problems.
  • Helps avoid costly repairs or replacements of the concrete in the future
