CR Scan: The Vanguard of Concrete Scanning Excellence
The ever-evolving skyline of our cities and the complexity of modern architecture demand cutting-edge technology to ensure structural safety. Nestled at the heart of modern infrastructure, concrete—resilient and steadfast—holds our structures together. But even this formidable material is not without its challenges. Cue in CR Scan, the front-runner in ensuring that the heartbeats of our buildings remain strong. Armed with GPR Scanning, our company offers unprecedented insights into the world beneath the concrete surface.
- Delving Deeper with GPR Scanning
Ground Penetrating Radar, commonly referred to as GPR Scanning, is the pinnacle of non-intrusive technology that allows us to view what’s hidden beneath the concrete surface. From the intricacies of reinforcement layouts to identifying conduits, voids, and other buried features, GPR scanning provides a comprehensive image of what lies beneath.
The sheer depth and clarity of information provided by GPR technology are unparalleled, ensuring that stakeholders get an exhaustive view of their structure’s integrity, thereby aiding in both preventive and remedial decision-making.

- The Silent Predator: Corrosion
The silent deterioration—Corrosion—is often the unsuspecting nemesis of concrete structures. From chloride-induced corrosion stemming from environmental exposure to carbonation-induced corrosion due to age and wear, this silent agent can drastically reduce a structure’s life span and safety.
CR Scan, with its advanced GPR Scanning capabilities, can detect early signs of corrosion in reinforcement bars, even before they manifest into visible signs or structural concerns. This preemptive approach ensures timely intervention, saving costs, and more importantly, averting potential hazards.
- The Transparent Account: Scan Reporting
Detecting potential structural concerns is pivotal, but understanding these findings and strategising future steps is equally crucial. That’s where Scan Reporting becomes invaluable.
CR Scan takes pride in offering detailed, user-friendly, and actionable scan reports. We believe that the information should not just be accurate but also easily comprehensible. Our reports delve into the intricacies of the scan results, offering insights into potential problem areas, the severity of the findings, and the recommended corrective actions. It’s not just about data; it’s about creating a roadmap for structural health.

What is Concrete Scanning?
Concrete scanning is the act of reading what sits under a concrete surface via the use of non-intrusive technology.
This is done in order to identify whether there are elements sitting under a concrete’s surface or to obtain an understanding of a known element’s condition.
Concrete scanning is further able to identify whether anomalies such as voids or cracks exist under a concrete surface.
All of these scenarios are then interpret by our leading industry specialists who are readily available to help you with any endeavours you have in mind.
How is Concrete Scanning Conducted?
Concrete scanning is the conducted via the use of non-intrusive technology such as ground penetrating radar (GPR), a cover meter, ferroscan instrument, ultrasonic scanning equipment and the like.
This technological equipment is able to non-intrusively penetrate your concrete structure and understand what is going on beyond its surface.
Once this has been conducted, industry specialists are then able to interpret the findings and report back to you on the condition of your concrete.
Additionally, recommendations regarding how to repair any poor condition found within the concrete are likewise provided.
What can Concrete Scanning Detect?
Is Concrete Scanning Effective?
Concrete scanning is an extremely effective scanning method.
Concrete scanning experts consider ground penetration radar (GPR) technology to be the best technique for scanning concrete.
GPR penetrates deeper than other methods.
The technology Structural Repairs uses has a better resolution than Ferroscan and the Cover Meter. The detection is not limited to metallic objects like these two methods.
GPR is further able to detect changes in a concrete’s subsurface and can detect most materials including plastic, wood and voids.
Overall, however, GPR technology is known for its precise, effective and very successful outcomes as it is able to provide specialists and clients with full and comprehensive reports regarding the condition of a concrete structure.

What Scanning Services do you actually offer?
Ground Penetration Radar
Our Ground Penetrating Radar services operate on a variety of difference concrete surfaces and structures.
They likewise hold the ability to identify and analyse an abundance of different sub ground elements and objects as a means to give you a clear picture of what is going on underneath your concrete.
As well as helping you identify the current conditions of your sub ground concrete, we are further able to assist you as we put into practice the remedial recommendations we have expertly suggested.
Before leaving the job site, Structural Repairs also make sure we communicate the best ways for you to maintain a healthy upkeep of your concrete going forward.
Rebar Corrosion Survey
Our comprehensive Rebar Corrosion Survey services utilise a range of non-intrusive methods in order to scan, identify and understand the current condition of the reinforcing bars under you concrete.
Via industry leading technology, we are able to provide you with a concise and comprehensive report. This will advise of exactly what is going on with your rebar.
What Are The Benefits Of Concrete Scanning?
Concrete scanning holds a plethora of different benefits. For example, it holds the ability to preserve the structural integrity of your concrete given that slicing through embedded elements can weaken the concrete and impact its structural strength.
Understanding what is going on under the surface of your concrete thus is likewise a time-consuming endeavour as it holds the ability to prevent large errors from taking place.
Cutting through a structure without being aware of any embedded elements can bring a project to a quick halt.
Avoiding damage and errors leads to cost savings as the project runs smoothly, thereby eliminating the need to repair damages, pay fines or penalties, or replace equipment or materials.
In all, a smooth project will allow for better for business to be conducted and will leave clients significantly more satisfied.
