CDA GPR provides professional Ground Penetrating Radar scanning for contractors, electricians, plumbers, engineers and property owners.
Owner/operator Mike Zimmerman brings extensive hands-on construction and concrete experience to every scan:
30 Years Construction Experience
15 Years Concrete Cutting Experience
7 Years GPR Scanning Experience
We understand what's happening inside the concrete—and what needs to happen after it's scanned.
Professional scanning performed using the GSSI StructureScan Mini XT.
REBAR
Locate reinforcement before drilling, coring, cutting or anchoring.
POST-TENSION CABLES
Identify PT cable locations before concrete penetration.
ELECTRICAL CONDUIT
Identify potential embedded electrical pathways before cutting or drilling.
SLAB THICKNESS
Evaluate concrete thickness where conditions allow.
VOIDS
Investigate potential voids beneath concrete slabs.
EMBEDDED OBJECTS
Identify anomalies and unknown objects concealed within concrete.
Concrete is a simple substance made up sand, stone, water and cement. Cement and water are the key ingredients. By adding the exact amount of water, a chemical reaction known as hydration begins. With the right weather and curing time, concrete turns from the plaster liquid state to a super hard rock like state, like your driveway or sidewalk.
Concrete is the hardest and the longest lasting materials we use. And the most common used material on the planet. Concrete can be made almost everywhere on our planet.
Concrete has a weakness....Tensile strength!Tensile strength is the amount of weight that can be dispersed on a horizontal slab of concrete. Concrete itself may be extremely strong but its weak with out the help of reinforcement. Rebar, wire mesh, or Post-tension cables are a few of the materials used inside or embedded in concrete. These materials help hold it all together under pressure or movement. concrete scanning concrete gpr concrete xray
Before concrete is mixed and poured. Reinforcements are put down along with conduits for power, private communication, and/or security. Thermal heating systems, water lines, and the unknown (objects, conduits, lines not on the blue prints due to remodel or tenant improvements). This is where GPR comes into play. CDA GPR has the ability of locating all of these targets. In some cases these targets can be tricky to indentify. We use 3D scanning to interpret the area of interest. In some cases a report is furnished to further your investigations.
