HOW WILL GPR FERRO SCANNING BENEFIT YOU?
Essentially, if you know exactly what is in the column, wall, ground or slab and where it is located, you will avoid hitting any structural supports, services, steel reinforcing or pipework. This prevention method is absolutely vital in making sure that costs are kept to a minimum and the health and safety of all involved is prioritised.
HOW DOES THE GPR FERRO SCAN WORK?
Utilising the very latest pulse technology, the GP8000 and GP8800, manufactured by industry experts Proceq, detects anything in the required ground, slab or wall area and provides expert data analysis, report generation and evaluation that is both visible in the field, including a 3D augmented reality view, a rotatable 3D image post scan on an iPad or raw data view. 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 diagrams and data for analysis by our GPR engineers in real time.
