Concrete scanning is crucial before any concrete work begins. Using advanced concrete scanning tools provides key insights into what lies beneath the surface, detecting:
  • Plumbing
  • Electrical lines
  • Tendons and rebar
  • Thickness
  • Voids and cracks
  • Fiber optic cables


Construction without concrete scanning may disrupt critical systems, leading to safety hazards and costly mistakes. Knowing what's underneath helps keep your team safe and your project on track.

Advancements in Concrete Scanning Technology
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) from GSSI is excellent for scanning concrete, detecting all the above items, and more. GSSI’s cutting-edge products include:

  • UtilityScan: The latest in utility locating systems.
  • PaveScan RDM 2.0: Measures pavement quality and uniformity.
  • StructureScan Pro: Offers versatile concrete inspection options.

These tools, with their efficient, high-tech remote controls and interfaces, connect to software that instantly indicates concrete quality and uniformity, highlighting any issues for construction or refurbishment work.

Real-Time Data Collection and Sharing
Operators using GPR can collect real-time data, switching between scanning modes for optimal data collection. Features include labeling scans with target, depth, and location in real-time and automatic on-site reporting, making data collection and reporting efficient and high-quality.

Concrete scanning tools integrate seamlessly with software applications, saving scans to a cloud-based application and tracking parameters such as measurements, changes, gain, and filters. Processed data can include comments, pictures, audio, and geographic locations, perfect for detailed client reports.

The Future of Concrete Scanning
Next-gen concrete scanning technology is becoming more sophisticated, with smaller models allowing for closer-range scanning in tight spaces. These advancements mean better data collection, real-time viewing, and data sharing, increasing productivity and reducing on-site time while ensuring safe and accurate concrete restoration and construction.
