How our GPR technology enable concrete scanning services will help you in your project success

In your construction, infrastructure, or renovation projects, Lyca, a concrete coring company, will serve you with various advantages that eventually lead you to have successful projects.

Concrete scanning

With advanced scanning technology we detect post-tension cables, conduits, and rebars that are embedded in the concrete slabs and walls.

Core drilling

The method that is used to create perfect cylindrical holes in several materials like masonry, asphalt, concrete, and metal is known as core drilling.

Wall scanning

Analyze and interpret what is beneath concrete with wall scanning, as it is made easier with Lyca scanning services.

Floor sawing

Floor sawing, also referred to as slab sawing, is a technique for concrete cutting. It is used to generate clean, straight cuts in horizontal surfaces like floors, pavements, roads, bridges, and floor.

Earth pit boring

Earth pit boring is a process in which a pit is drilled into the ground for several purposes like installation of utilities, geotechnical investigation, and other construction operations.

Floor sawing cutting

In order to deliver precise and reliable results we leverage the most efficient scanning equipment and renowned techniques for floor sawing cutting services.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is concrete scanning in identifying embedded objects?
Our advanced Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology achieves precision up to 95%, reliably detecting embedded objects such as rebar, post tension cables, and conduits. With a depth capability of up to 36 inches and a resolution of up to 1/4 inch, our scans offer comprehensive insights for accurate structural assessments.
Concrete scanning with technologies like Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has limitations. GPR’s effective depth is up to 24 inches, and its accuracy diminishes beyond this range. Ultrasonic Pulse Echo (UPE) requires small spacing, making large area scans time-consuming. X-ray imaging necessitates a clear 15-25 meter distance for safety.
Concrete scanning improves construction safety by using specialized equipment like Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to detect hidden hazards within concrete structures, such as rebar, post tension cables, and conduits, preventing accidents and ensuring a safer work environment for all involved.
Yes, given the infrastructure and construction needed, concrete scanning is crucial for ensuring safe and efficient renovation or upgrades. Our specialized equipment and expertise enable precise analysis, ensuring project success even in older buildings, minimizing risks and avoiding costly damages or delays.
Concrete scanning methods include Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), which uses high-frequency antennas to detect structures and utilities within concrete, and X-ray imaging, which provides detailed images of the internal structure but requires more safety precautions and setup time.
A typical concrete scanning process usually takes between 1 to 4 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the area to be scanned. However, larger or more intricate projects may require additional time for thorough analysis.

Based on industry standards and requirements, a professional concrete scanner should possess the following qualifications:

  • Certifications from recognized professional bodies such as ACI (American Concrete Institute) or similar.
  • Minimum of 3-5 years of experience in concrete scanning and structural analysis.
  • Proficiency in the use of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and other concrete scanning equipment.
  • Knowledge of and compliance with safety standards and regulations in the construction industry.
  • Familiarity with specific construction codes and practices relevant to the region.
Concrete scanning helps in renovation projects by providing critical insights into subsurface conditions, detecting hidden hazards, and ensuring safety and efficiency in planning and execution. This process reduces the risk of foundational damage and significantly cuts renovation time.
The costs associated with concrete scanning and coring can vary significantly based on factors such as the size and complexity of the project, the equipment used, and local market rates. Regardless of cost, ensuring that these services are done precisely and professionally is crucial to avoid damage to structures and injuries.
Concrete scanning prevents damage to utility lines by using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology to detect and locate rebar, voids, post-tension cables, cavities, conduits, and other objects within the concrete structure before drilling or cutting, thus avoiding accidental strikes.
