Ground penetration radar (GPR) at Intellitest Solutions Private Limited is a non-destructive test method that generates an electromagnetic signal that penetrates the subsoil and measures the amplitude of the signal and the time it takes to return. The GPR data provide high-resolution transverse images of the scanned material. Different levels of resolution and study depth can be obtained by means of antennas of different frequencies. The data is very versatile and can be applied to many disciplines.

To whom it's directed

GPR is an adaptable geophysical technique. It can be used in the geotechnical field, for the inspection and analysis of concrete, as well as in projects in other fields, for example environmental, archaeological and transport.

It is used throughout the life cycle of a project, from design to maintenance and exploitation. GPR is frequently used during the design phase of construction projects in order to study the geological properties of the land or identify the location of buried services and underground anomalies. It is also commonly used during the construction phase and afterwards to verify the thickness of the concrete or locate reinforcing bars or buried service pipes.

The GPR can be used to collect the following types of data:



Geotechnical

Location of post-tensioned reinforcement bars / cables

Location of buried services and conduits

Thickness of concrete slabs / roofs

Integrity of the concrete / identification of holes Environmental

Land evaluation

Location of underground storage tanks and tanks

Plotting landfill and pit boundaries

Archaeological and forensic investigations

Cartography of pollutant vapor columns

Aquifer mapping

Transport

Thickness of the asphalt

Evaluation of base layers and hole detection

Evaluation of the state of bridges

Thickness of bridge deck and concrete deck
