The Ultimate Diagnostic Arsenal

 

The Clarity to Act

Complex structural degradation is rarely simple to diagnose. A single symptom on the surface often masks a much deeper, multi-faceted failure beneath. At Structural Scanning, we do not rely on a single piece of equipment to solve complex engineering challenges. We deploy a comprehensive suite of advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) methodologies – cross-referencing radar profiles, ultrasonic echoes and electrochemical data to eliminate guesswork. Explore our core diagnostic solutions below and discover how we provide the definitive intelligence required to protect your critical assets.

Strike Prevention & Safe Concrete Coring

Drilling blindly into heavily reinforced concrete is a catastrophic commercial and safety risk. We deploy high-frequency Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to map embedded utilities, structural rebar and post-tensioned cables before a single core is cut. This intelligence completely eliminates the threat of utility strikes – protecting your site personnel, preventing operational downtime and preserving the fundamental structural integrity of the asset.

Void & Subsidence Detection

Sub-surface voiding is often the invisible precursor to major structural collapse. Utilising deep-penetrating radar, we map the exact volume, depth and location of subterranean washouts beneath critical floor slabs, highways and retaining walls. This proactive sub-surface mapping allows asset managers to execute targeted resin injection or underpinning long before surface-level subsidence compromises the structure.

Rebar & Post-Tension Cable Locating

Severing a post-tensioned cable during building alterations can lead to the immediate failure of an entire structural slab. We deliver precise 3D mapping of all internal steelwork. By pinpointing the exact depth, layout and density of reinforcement, we provide your engineering and contracting teams with the “safe drill zones” required to proceed with absolute commercial confidence.

Condition & Corrosion Surveys

Surface cracking is rarely the root cause of structural failure – it is merely the symptom of hidden degradation. We conduct comprehensive electrochemical and ultrasonic surveys to monitor active rebar corrosion, moisture ingress and concrete delamination. This highly detailed analysis provides a definitive timeline of degradation, allowing you to transition from reactive patching to engineered preventative maintenance.

RAAC Integrity Monitoring

Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) presents an unprecedented crisis for public sector estates and commercial buildings. We offer rapid, non-destructive identification and ongoing condition monitoring of suspect structural planks. By mapping internal micro-fractures, deflection and moisture levels, we provide the definitive data required to secure vulnerable buildings and ensure absolute public safety.

Weld Integrity Testing

The structural safety of heavy steel infrastructure relies entirely on the hidden integrity of its connections. We deploy advanced Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) to inspect critical structural welds for internal flaws, slag inclusions and microscopic fatigue cracking. Our rigorous remote testing ensures absolute compliance with national structural codes without ever necessitating destructive physical sampling.

From Raw Data to Remediation

Having access to world-class scanning technology is only half the battle. The true value of our diagnostic solutions lies in how we interpret the data. Whether you engage us for a rapid void detection survey or a comprehensive scan-to-repair lifecycle project, our dedicated in-house analytics team scrutinises every metric. We ensure that every solution we provide culminates in a clear, peer-reviewed and fully actionable engineering report.
