GPR (Ground Penetration Radar) services
Concrete scanning, also known as concrete x-ray, with ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a geophysical technique that uses radar pulses to nondestructively investigate concrete, earth, and other media, and it is used to locate and map the positions of metallic and non-metallic materials such as rebar, post-tensioning cables, conduit, metal and plastic pipes, electrical cables, and other near-surface anomalies and objects in concrete.
One of the main uses of GPR is locating anomalies in concrete buildings, bridges, and other structures. For instance, post-tension cable, rebar, conduit, pipes, fiber optic cables and air voids can all be identified using the 3D imaging capabilities of GPR. Determining the location and depth of these objects within concrete structures is crucial before cutting, drilling or coring.
GPR Surveying Services
Our GPR scanning services are highly recommended for any type of commercial, residential or municipal projects where there is a question about the potential presence of subsurface objects such as air pockets or utility lines. A concrete “x-ray” survey or GPR is a geophysical process that uses a pulsating wave of radar to cut through the top surface of the concrete instead of actually penetrating the ground layer or disturbing the surrounding area. This system uses radar and electromagnetic waves to scan the entire area and locate any questionable subsurface materials by sending a unique return signal to the technician operating the machine.
Extensively trained in using this innovative technology, our GSS crew is ready to explain their findings and evaluate the potential risk of any sub-level materials to help determine next steps and subsequent project planning.
GSS is working closely with the clients, maintaining the quality output and ensuring they receive the best practice through our expert team and by utilizing the latest technology in regard of GPR software and instrumentation.
ABOUT GSS
We remain true to the same principles on which our company was founded 25 years ago: providing superior service to our clients, putting safety first, creating opportunities for our engineers, delivering exceptional work and keep up with changing technology.
The Process
We remain true to the same principles on which our company was founded over a hundred years ago: providing superior service to our clients, putting safety first, creating opportunities for our people, delivering exceptional work, fostering innovation, acting with integrity, and strengthening our communities.
Construction is the process of constructing a building or infrastructure. Construction differs from manufacturing in that manufacturing typically involves mass production of similar items without a designated purchaser.
Strategic and Tactical
We connect expertise across services, markets, and geographies to deliver transformative outcomes. Worldwide, we design, build, finance, operate and manage projects and programs that unlock opportunities.
Embedded in our culture of hard work, honesty, and getting the well done job, our history tells not only much about our past but also it does our present.е Our record of succeeding, surviving, and striving to be the best is central to our reputation today.
Construction as an industry comprises six to nine percent of the gross domestic product of developed countries. Construction starts with planning, design, and financing and continues until the project is built and ready for use.
