GPR (ground penetrating radar) versus X-Ray for Concrete Inspection

GPR vs. X-Ray for Concrete InspectionThe use of GPR in concrete construction, inspection and repair has been rapidly gaining in popularity over older x-ray methods. GPR has proven to be more economical, safer, more versatile and more accurate than x-ray.

More Economical - GPR gives real-time on-site results so it takes a fraction of the time of x-ray development and processing and there's no need to evacuate the area.

Safer - GPR uses an electromagnetic radar pulse that has no harmful effects. X-ray processes requires a potentially dangerous radiation source and requires evacuation of adjacent areas.

More Versatile - GPR only requires access to one side of concrete slabs to image them. X-ray requires two-sided access so the x-ray film can be placed on the opposite side for exposure.

More Accurate - GPR displays real-time 3-D images at your location with proven accuracy.
