Task
Conduct concrete scanning services to clear coring locations in a high-rise’s concrete slabs.
PROBLEM
- A concrete coring company needed to core through slabs in a high-rise office building
- The building engineer required concrete X-ray be conducted prior to coring, but the concrete coring company did not trust the results of the X-ray investigation or a subsequent ground penetrating radar investigation conducted by another company
- The X-ray company told the contractor that the slabs were post-tensioned
- The contractor on the job spent $30,000 on these investigations
Solution
- GPRS demonstrated to the engineer the accuracy of our precision concrete scanning services
- The GPRS Project Manager identified where the concrete coring company could safely penetrate the slabs and confirmed that they were not post-tensioned
- Findings were marked directly and clearly on the slabs, with Green Boxes indicating safe coring locations
Benefits
- The coring company completed their work without damaging the building’s slabs
- All workers and civilians on-site were protected from the dangerous consequences of striking a buried conduit or other embedded item
- The contractor can stop spending money on investigations that leave them with more questions than answers
