Why Do You Need a Professional GPR Scanning Service? A Comprehensive Guide
Building a home or a commercial structure typically includes cutting and coring existing concrete slabs and excavation. That is why a professional GPR scanning service plays an important role here. At CNI Locates, our professionals find the location of hidden utilities inside the concrete and under the ground. We identify hidden wires, rebar, water, sewer, etc.
The Need for GPR Concrete Scanning Service
Imagine a core driller damages a post tensioned cable inside the concrete while coring. Chances are that the whole slab will be destroyed or needs significant repairs. This scenario could also cause safety hazards making it dangerous for workers and the integrity of the structure.
Touching a post tension cable or electrical wires can cause snapping and power outages, so we need scanning services to avoid these dangers and ensure a safe workplace. At CNI Locates, our GPR concrete scanners can quickly locate hazards and hidden objects. This service saves time and money helping projects get competed on time and safely. Our GPR scanning service is safe and secure and emits no radiation or harmful by-products.
Key Advantages of Hiring GPR Scanning Service
GPR is generally used for ground or concrete to detect utilities and avoid hitting them during digging or excavation. Our GPR scanning service offers numerous advantages over traditional methods.
It is a non-distractive technique, meaning it does not require any drilling or demolition, which can save time and money. Here are some major advantages to hiring a professional GPR scanning service:
● Safe and Secure
At CNI Locates, our GPR scanning service identifies the hidden utilities or objects beneath the concrete surface, such as electrical cables, gas lines, water pipes, or rebar. A GPR scan allows subsurface workers to avoid hazards, ensuring the safety of workers and preventing costly repairs.
● Efficiency
Our GPR scanning service provides real-time, non-destructive scanning of the subsurface, allowing for quick and accurate identification of potential obstacles. This helps contractors plan their cutting or excavation activities more efficiently, reducing downtime and improving project timelines.
● Cost Effective
Suddenly, cutting into utilities or objects can result in expensive repairs, delays, and legal liabilities; by hiring us and using GPR scanning to locate and mark the position of these utilities before cutting, potential damages can be avoided, saving both time and money.
● Get Better Quality
GPR is able to scan one side of a concrete slab to produce a clear scan. For the alternative (X-ray), the only way to make a scan is for the equipment to be able to see both sides of the slab. Our experienced technicians deliver timely and detailed results that empower our clients to make informed business decisions.
Summary
As the construction industry evolves, embracing advanced technologies like GPR becomes increasingly crucial. At CNI Locates, we encourage workers to explore our GPR scanning services and incorporate this powerful tool into their building assessment process.
