Identifying Grout and Rebar in a CMU Wall - Des Moines, Iowa

Ground Penetrating Radar Systems was asked to confirm which cells in a new CMU wall contained grout and rebar. The technician was able to determine which cells contained grout and bar and that the contractor had followed specifications.

Using GPR to analyze masonry walls for a missed inspection, modifying an existing wall, or drilling and anchoring into the wall is always a good idea. GPRS can efficiently determine location of reinforcement in masonry walls, concrete walls and floors. Ground Penetrating Radar Systems of Des Moines can assist on any projects in the Ames, Fort Dodge, and Council Bluffs areas.
