Rebar Locate At Electric Plant

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems assisted in the installation of new equipment at a training center in the Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant in Waynesboro, Georgia. GPRS was asked to determine the location of the reinforcing steel and embedded utility lines within the concrete so that they would not be damaged during drilling. GPR is an ideal tool for use in facilities with sensitive electrical equipment, as it does not emit harmful radiation, produces virtually no noise, and will not disturb equipment or facility workers.

GPR is frequently used to scan concrete to determine the presence of embedded obstructions in concrete. It can be used on elevated slabs or on slab-on-grade concrete. It can also be used for locating underground utilities and underground storage tanks, as well as for unmarked grave mapping and locating septic systems.
