Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
As the rules and regulations in California start to call for more surveying of project areas before work can begin, Beeline Concrete Cutting is staying ahead of the curve having certified technicians that can do GPR Scanning with the Structure Scan by GSSI. Our skilled team can efficiently scan concrete for any rebar, post-tension cables, PVC, or conduit. We work with our customers to provide the best possible service we can, and by using Beeline you don’t have to hire one company to do the scanning and another to do the cutting because we can do it all! Which in turn leads to reduced stress on you, and an easier transition on the job site.

Frequently Asked Questions About GPR Scanning
How Does GPR Scanning Work?
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) systems operate by transmitting a small amount of energy into a material using an antenna. A computer integrated into the system records the strength and time taken for any reflected signals to return. The system picks up reflections produced by various materials such as differences in geological structures and man-made objects like pipes and wires. These reflections are then stored on digital media.
What Can GPR Detect ?
The Structure Scan Mini XT is perfect for inspecting and evaluating concrete. Easily locate the position and depth of metallic and non-metallic objects in concrete structures, including rebar, conduit, post-tension cables, pan decking, voids, and service utilities.
The Utility Scan is commonly used to scan utilities, locate water lines, detect voids, underground storage tanks (USTs), identify soil and foundation characteristics, and locate shallow objects for archaeology.
What Are The Benefits To Using GPR Scanning?
Using GPS scanning eliminates guesswork when identifying what’s below the surface. The Mini XT and utility scanner provide benefits that can help reduce safety risks, financial exposure, and costly delays.
