Locating PT Cables at Parking Garage - Milwaukee, WIGround Penetrating Radar Systems, LLC. – GPRS – of Wisconsin was a contacted by a major general contractor to scan reinforcing on two faces of twenty-one overhead beams of a parking garage of a hospital in Milwaukee, WI. The purpose of the scanning was to identify the stirrups and post-tension tendons in order to evaluate the strength of the beams and to design new cross beams to be added to increase the structural integrity.
The site was very congested with shoring every few feet. Because of this, GPRS, LLC. scanned all the beams from a ladder! GPRS, LLC. was contacted only two days before the project started. The scanning of this large project was completed in four days and was on budget and completed in the exact time GPRS, LLC. anticipated completion. You will be surprised by how much GPRS can tell you about the structure/utilities beneath your feet! Ground penetrating radar is a great tool to scan areas of post tension cables, rebar, and conduits, including PVC pipes and can also be used to locate underground utilities prior to digging or excavating.
