Call CanWest for all your Concrete Anchoring Installs

CanWest will be on your site within hours of your call to quickly scan large sections of concrete. Our ground radar technology creates a detailed, three-dimensional image that makes job planning a snap.

GPR scanning technology is faster and safer than radiography (X Rays), which uses radiation for concrete scanning. Additionally, we can perform concrete testing through a depth of up to 18 inches and only need access to one side of the structure.

Using our top of the line GSSI and Hilti ground penetrating radar equipment and power locates, CanWest can locate all buried obstructions such as rebar, tension cables, conduits, voids, or pipes, in concrete before we cut or core drill.

Canwest has many years’ experience in the scanning business.

In the last two years we have had a 98% success rate with our scanning, drilling & saw cutting, which in turn saved our clients thousands of dollars in expensive repair bills.

Our concrete scanners locates water lines, voids in concrete, in-floor heating lines, power lines, computer lines, fibre optics, etc. Our new GSSI scanners gives greater definition in finding hard to see objects such as water pipes and voids in the concrete. 

 

Your Choice for Concrete Scanning

StructureScan Optical™ is the only concrete inspection tool on the market with an optical barcode reader and patented Smart Pad technology for easy wall and floor concrete scanning. StructureScan Optical has revolutionized 3D data collection by simplifying an often-complicated survey process while providing the most accurate results in the GPR industry.

Typical Uses for Structure Scan Optical include:

  • Concrete inspection – locate metallic and non-metallic targets in walls, floors
  • Structure inspection – bridges, monuments, walls, towers, tunnels
  • Balconies, garages, decks
  • Condition assessment – map relative concrete condition for rehab planning
  • Ceiling inspection
  • Measure slab thickness
  • Void location
  • Locate rebar, post tension cables, conduits (PVC and metal) in real time
  • Most accurate GPR data results on the market
  • Instant 3D data collection
  • No site hazards or need to close off work areas as with radiography (X-Ray)
