Concrete Scanning Services Prior to Concrete Core Drilling

Before performing concrete core drilling, it is crucial to conduct a thorough concrete scan to ensure the safety, accuracy, and efficiency of the drilling process. Concrete scanning services utilize advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques to detect hidden elements within the concrete structure, preventing costly damage and safety hazards.

Why Concrete Scanning is Essential

Prevents Structural Damage – Scanning helps identify reinforcements such as rebar and post-tension cables, ensuring they remain intact during drilling.

Ensures Safety – Detecting electrical conduits, water pipes, and gas lines reduces the risk of electrocution, leaks, or service interruptions.

Minimizes Costly Delays – Avoiding damage to embedded objects prevents expensive repairs and project downtime.

Enhances Precision – Provides accurate data on concrete thickness, voids, and potential weak points, allowing for precise drilling locations.

Complies with Regulations – Many building codes and workplace safety regulations require scanning before drilling to mitigate risks.

Our Concrete Scanning Process

Site Assessment – Evaluating the project site to determine scanning requirements.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Scanning – Utilizing high-frequency radar waves to map internal structures.

Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) Scanning – Detecting live electrical conduits and metallic objects.

Data Interpretation & Reporting – Providing detailed reports with scanning results and safe drilling zones.

Marking & Clearance – Clearly marking safe drilling areas to guide the core drilling process.
