Concrete Scanning
Jones GPR utilizes Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to deliver accurate, non-destructive concrete scanning services. GPR is capable of locating embedded hazards within concrete slabs up to approximately 16 inches in depth, depending on site conditions.
During the scan, findings are interpreted and marked in real time, allowing for clear identification of safe areas for coring, cutting, and anchoring. This immediate feedback helps reduce risk and prevents costly damage to critical structural components.
Using GPR, Jones GPR can reliably identify the following embedded features:
- Reinforcing Steel (Rebar)
- Electrical Conduit
- Post-Tension Cables
- PVC and Other Non-Metallic Pipes
GPR is an essential tool for ensuring safe and efficient work within concrete structures, particularly in modern construction where post-tension systems are common.
Concrete Inspection
In addition to locating embedded objects, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a valuable tool for advanced concrete evaluation and inspection.
GPR can provide critical insight into the internal condition of concrete structures, helping identify potential issues before they become costly problems. Through signal analysis, GPR can assist in determining:
- Slab Thickness
- Presence of Voids
- Relative Concrete Density
These capabilities make GPR an effective solution for quality control, structural assessment, and troubleshooting in both new construction and existing structures.
