Concrete Scanning in Kitimat, BC
GPR concrete scanning to locate rebar, post-tension cables, conduits, and voids before cutting or coring in BC structures.
Our concrete scanning process uses high-frequency GPR antennas (1.6 GHz to 2.6 GHz) specifically designed for concrete investigation. These antennas provide high-resolution imaging of the upper 400-500 mm of concrete, which covers the typical depth of reinforcement and embedded services in most BC concrete structures. The radar signal penetrates the concrete and reflects off embedded objects, creating a real-time cross-sectional image (radargram) that our trained operators interpret on site. We can identify and mark the position and depth of rebar mats, post-tension cable bundles, conduits and electrical raceways, in-floor heating tubes, core drill anchor paths, and voids or delamination within the slab.
Our concrete scanning service is essential for several scenarios: before core drilling for plumbing or HVAC penetrations, before slab cutting for leak repair access, before anchor or dowel installation in existing concrete, for verifying post-tension cable locations in parking garages and podiums, for locating in-floor radiant heating tubes before floor removal or renovation, and for investigating concrete condition and void detection. We provide same-day on-site markings with paint and written documentation including depth information. Our service covers Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, and all major BC centres where concrete construction is prevalent. We work with general contractors, leak repair specialists, structural engineers, and renovation companies to ensure safe, accurate concrete penetration.
