Avery Dennison Concrete Inspection

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems was contracted to do several concrete inspections at the Avery Dennison plant in Mill Hall, PA. The plant was looking to add some steel “cat-walk” structures to two different existing concrete slabs. They did not have any information on the slabs and in order to build this structure properly they needed to know what loads could be applied to the concrete.

Chris Moore with Ground Penetrating Radar Systems was contacted to come in and do several inspections to determine concrete thickness and rebar presence. GPRS was able to provide invaluable information proving concrete thickness and rebar spacing which was then provided to the engineers for further evaluation.

Concrete inspections are becoming a popular application for ground penetrating radar because it is a non-invasive inspection. Most clients are interested in gathering as much information as possible without destroying the concrete and Ground Penetrating Radar has the solution.

Overall, the concrete inspections at the Avery Dennison plant were extremely successful and provided more then the necessary information for the contractors and engineers.
