Ground Penetrating Radar Systems, Inc. was contacted to locate the reinforcing steel within a CMU block wall to determine its structural integrity in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Using the ground penetrating radar antenna capable of scanning 18-22 inches of concrete, Wade Vickers of GPRS-Oklahoma mobilized to the site and was able to give the precise location of the bonded beams and reinforcing steel within the wall. Since the wall was completely finished, the findings were shown using a blue masking tape and fully communicated with the customer. Due to GPR’s portability, the work was able to be performed using a lift. Unlike x-ray/gamma ray, Ground Penetrating Radar is time efficient, non-hazardous and able to show real time results. The energy emitted is equivalent to 1% of a cell phone, therefore, the production of the construction site can continue without any radiation hazards.
