What We Can Do For You

Our Non-Destructive Investigation Services


 

GUIDED ON-SITE ASSESSMENTS

Our Concrete Technologist can assess your concrete works, provide practical and economic recommendations and resolve complex issues.

 


 

 

HARDENED CONCRETE ASSESSMENTS

We can conduct surveys to determine reinforcing depth and corrosion, crack width, surface hardness and other properties of in-situ concrete.

Cover Surveys, Half-Cell Potential, Reinforcement Diameter, Crack Width Measurement, Rebound Hammer


 

UNDERGROUND SERVICE MAPPING

We can produce detailed maps showing storm water pipes, drains, sewers, electrical lines, fibre lines and voids underneath construction sites and earthworks.

GS8000 Ground Penetrating Radar. GP8000 Ground Penetrating Radar.


 

 

WET CONCRETE ASSESSMENTS

In-situ, non-destructive tests to scanning sub-surface targets in concrete elements, study the properties of sub-surface layers and check the quality of concrete by measuring the velocity of an ultrasonic pulse through concrete.

Concrete Mix Designs, Heat of Hydration Monitoring


 

CONCRETE STRUCTURE ASSESSMENTS

We can reveal and assess cracks, voids and other integrity issues in large concrete floors and major concrete structures such as bridges, walls, reservoirs and silos.

PULL OFF AND PULL OUT TESTING

We can evaluate the pull-off strength (adhesion) of a coating from a rigid substrate such as a concrete or metal floor as well as determine how strong and secure a fixing is by attaching a test rig to a bolt, screw, anchor or fixing and putting it under tension to the designed stress load level.

Pull of testing screed, epoxy and coatings. Pull out testing chemical anchors and fixings.


 

SUB-SURFACE SCANNING

We can reveal the exact location of reinforcing, pre and post-tension cables and other subsurface elements in concrete and develop tailored, sophisticated solutions for projects requiring sensitive interventions.

Ultrasonic Pulse Echo (UPE). Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV).


 

DRONE SURVEYS

We can generate accurate topographical maps and 3D models of areas and structures using LIDAR technology. 

LiDAR Surveys, Industrial Inspections, Thermal Industrial Inspections, Topographic Surveys, Stockpile Surveys, As-Built Surveys


 

SCREED TESTING

We can assess if your screed is adequately compacted and determine the probable performance in use.
