Concrete scanning is a specialized application of GPR technology using high-frequency antennas (1.6-2.6 GHz) to map embedded elements within concrete structures. Before any cutting, coring, or anchoring into concrete, scanning identifies the position and depth of reinforcing steel (rebar), post-tension cables, electrical conduits, in-floor heating tubes, and any voids or delamination within the slab. This service is essential for preventing catastrophic strikes of post-tension cables — which can fail catastrophically — and for locating the safest path for core drill penetrations or slab cutting for leak repair access.
