Overview
Concrete scanning is the use of ground penetrating radar and other equipment to detect materials or voids within a concrete slab. It is used to inspect concrete slabs or columns before coring or drilling in renovations and new construction projects. It is similar to an x-ray of a human body, using radar to get an inside look at even large slabs of concrete. Concrete scanning is also crucial for analyzing the contents of a concrete structure, including the thickness of the concrete itself as well as any other objects that may be embedded in it.

A concrete scan in land and underground surveying is the process of using specialized equipment to create a detailed image of the interior of a concrete structure.
This type of scan is typically done using Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) equipment. GPR sends electromagnetic waves into the concrete and measures the reflection to create a detailed image of the subsurface features
Concrete scans are commonly used in construction and engineering projects, such as new building construction, renovations, and remodels, as well as in infrastructure projects like bridges and roads. They are used to locate and map potential issues such as reinforcing steel, post-tension cables, conduit, voids, and other objects that may be embedded in the concrete, which could affect the structural integrity of the building or infrastructure.
