HOW WILL GPR FERRO SCANNING BENEFIT YOU?
Put simply, if you know exactly what is in the wall, slab, column or ground and where it is located, you will avoid hitting any services, pipework, steel reinforcing or structural supports. This prevention method is absolutely vital in ensuring that costs are kept to an absolute minimum and the health and safety of all involved is prioritised.
HOW DOES THE GPR FERRO SCAN WORK?
Utilising pulse technology, the GP8000, manufactured by industry specialists Proceq, detects anything in the required ground, wall or slab area and provides expert data analysis, evaluation and report generation that is visible in the field, including raw data view, a 3D augmented reality view or a rotatable 3D image post scan on an iPad. This will also include a fully generated report that is sent back to the office. Downloaded information can then be used to create detailed documents with data and diagrams for analysis by our GPR engineers in real time.
