Ground Penetrating Radar is used for concrete scanning and investigation work, either to locate safe regions before concrete is cut or drilled or to help understand the detailed construction inside a concrete element.
PCTE sells Proceq Concrete GPR scanners and can provide software, training and support in Australia and New Zealand.
Proceq GPR range are wireless stepped frequency continuous wave (SFCW) GPR scanners. The use of SFCW offers exceptional radar depth penetration and resolution, useful for operators who need to locate deeply buried object such as post tension tendons, reinforcing inside beam or columns or to measure concrete thickness.
The tablet first GPR user interface enable easy handling, interpretation, annotation and file management. Linked up to Screening Eagles Workspace cloud services for a faster and simpler concrete scanning or investigation workflow, including direct import to GPR Insights post processing software.
Large open voids, such as polystyrene void formers, hollow pipes or very large air bubbles may be located. GPR is not appropriate for small distributed honeycomb voiding or delamination. An Ultrasonic technique would be a good choice.
Yes, but not with the same precision as a dedicated cover meter.
Yes, but only to the maximum penetration depth achieved by the radar, this will be a depth between 400-700 mm in normal applications.
