Ever work on a building that didn’t have any as-built plans? Our customer was faced with this issue on a high rise building in downtown Indianapolis. Our customer needed to core drill several holes through the floor but had no idea what was in the slab, only rumors of post tensioned cables. Ground Penetrating Radar Systems of Indiana were able to mobilize on-site and shed some light on the mystery slab. The technician was able to determine within 10 minutes that the slab was 15” hollow core including a topping slab. The technician then proceeded to map out all the hollow areas of the slab and tension cables.

Concrete scanning technology performed by a certified technician can identify any dangers in the slab and map these items in a matter of minutes. The concrete radar penetrating emits no harmful radiation and only needs access to one side of the slab, making it the fastest and most advanced technology available. GPRS of Indianapolis can clear approximately 30 core drilling locations in a single 8 hour day! If you would like to have your concrete cut without severing any conduits, PT cables or reinforcing steel contact your local technician today at sam.baldwin@gp-radar.com or 317-504-1068. GPRS of Indiana can mobilize to: Muncie, South Bend or Evansville.
