Ground Penetrating Radar Structure Investigations
At Technics Group, we harness the latest advancements in Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology to deliver highly accurate, non-invasive structural imaging and scanning services across the UK.
GPR has become a staple in utility surveying, but its capabilities in structural investigations provide a far broader and more detailed view than traditional methods such as cover meters and coring. Our approach ensures faster, more reliable results while reducing disruption, project risk and overall costs.
We provide ground penetrating radar surveys across the United Kingdom, with our key locations including London, Nottingham, Wakefield and Guildford, supporting projects nationwide.
The Technics Advantage: Why Use Ground Penetrating Radar?
GPR offers significant advantages over conventional structural investigation techniques:
- Non-Invasive Analysis: No need for destructive drilling or coring, preserving the building’s structural integrity.
- High-Resolution Results: Penetrates materials up to 500mm deep, identifying multiple layers of reinforcement, chimney flues and voids.
- Safe & Efficient: Silent, free from harmful emissions, and ideal for use in occupied or sensitive environments like heritage sites.
- Comprehensive Reporting: Immediate on-site feedback with detailed post-survey reports, including CAD drawings and 3D visualisations.
This makes ground penetrating radar surveys an ideal solution for projects where accuracy, safety and minimal disruption are essential.
Ground Penetrating Radar Survey Services
Our GPR survey services provide detailed insights into building structures where drawings are unavailable, outdated or require verification.
Applications of GPR in Building and Structural Inspections
GPR is an invaluable tool for inspecting buildings, especially when original plans are unavailable or need verification. It provides clear insights into structural conditions without causing any damage to the property.
Common Applications Include:
- Measuring the thickness of slabs, walls, and structural components.
- Identifying basement and floor slab construction details.
- Mapping bridge deck and reinforcement in concrete structures.
- Detecting conduits, flues, and voids.
- Pinpointing foundations and evaluating structural elements.
Our ground penetrating radar scanning services are widely used across construction, refurbishment and structural assessment projects.
Chimney Flue Surveys
Our non-destructive chimney flue surveys allow accurate identification of flues without damaging walls or finishes.
These surveys are beneficial when:
- Planning wall openings for renovations or extensions.
- Connecting adjacent residential units.
- Modernising older buildings by repurposing flues for ventilation or HVAC systems.
- Working within listed or heritage properties where intrusive methods are restricted.
Using ground penetrating radar, we provide precise flue mapping while maintaining the integrity of the structure.
