A void immediately below a concrete slab:
indicated by the black-white-black.

This data is from a General Motors Plant. A fire-protection service line broke, washing away the sub-grade from below the concrete. GPR was able to clearly indicate a definitive perimeter of the created void cavity.

Testimonial From Marty McHugh, Project Supervisor, AK Tube

"As a Project Supervisor, I have had several occasions to use the services of Ground Penetrating Radar Systems . Every time that I have called them to look for buried utilities or other potential obstacles, they have responded in a timely manner to scan the site. I am still amazed at how accurately objects embedded in and buried below the concrete can be found with this technology. Not only can they tell me that there is something there, but at what depth, what size it is, and based on the signal, they can make a reasonable assessment of if it is a conduit, pipe or some other type of object. This information helps to ensure the safety of contractors and company employees when floor penetrations and excavations are required. The service provided by Ground Penetrating Radar has always been prompt, professional, polite and helpful. As a satisfied customer, I know that when the need arises, I will be calling them again to fill my need to know what is in and under the floor where I need to do work."
