Concrete Scanning & Inspection

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for Structural Investigations

The CX Concrete Imaging System from MALÅ is an easy to use, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system designed for the non-destructive investigation and imaging of concrete and other structures.

Construction professionals involved in the cutting, coring or drilling of concrete structures require a safe and reliable means of inspecting work areas. Lambert Locations GPR services allows them to locate and identify hidden features that could cause damage to machinery, pose a danger to the operator or the structure itself during these activities.

The CX concrete scanning system allows us to scan concrete structures simply and safely and present data clearly for real-time and in-the-box data acquisition, display and analysis. It is a quicker, safer and more cost effective option than other competing concrete scan systems or traditional radiographic testing methods.

GPR Main Applications

The CX system is the tool of choice for those who need to quickly and easily investigate areas prior to cutting, coring or drilling. Other applications include:

  • Concrete inspection & structure inspection
  • Measure depth of cover or slab thickness
  • Measure layer thickness
  • Locate and map reinforcing support structure
  • Locate non-metallic features, i.e. heating/ water pipes
  • Quality assessment & control
  • Void detection

System Configuration

The CX concrete scan system was the world’s first to combine GPR with the more common Electro-Magnetic (EM) technology by way of a fully integrated 50/ 60 Hz sensor. This combination allows the detection of both metallic and non metallic objects and features, and also aids in the detection and location of metallic conductors energized with 50/ 60 Hz energy within the structure under investigation. This offers an additional element of safety to the system.
