Scantec GPR Services, Inc. in Edmonton and Calgary was contacted by a general contractor to locate reinforcement and conduits in a hollow-core concrete slab in downtown Calgary, AB. The customer was looking to core drill through the slab at the optimal location. Scantec GPR arrived on-site to supply the customer with concrete imaging without delay, providing the constructive information and keeping the project on schedule. Our standard turnaround time for scheduling projects is twenty-four to forty-eight hours and we are often available to be on projects for same-day service requests.

All data findings were marked permanently on the surface in real-time at the customer’s request, while the detailed on-site report was delivered within twenty-four hours. On this project, the slab’s thickness was estimated with pre-cast hollow-core slab at the bottom and one layer of wire mesh and a strand within the solid portion between hollows. Besides, the hollow portion was identified and marked accurately, which could be used as a coring target. Only one side of the slab is needed for scanning, so time and resources are much more ideal for the tight schedules and budgets of today’s construction projects.
