Buried Utility Location Services
Planning prior to excavation can reduce costs and delays as well as avoid the hazards of buried infrastructure.
Utilise, using radio-detection and ground penetrating radar(GPR), can provide an evaluation of a site prior to excavation or beginning new installation.
This evaluation will locate buried utilities or other underground obstacles, such as made up ground, debris or old foundations. GPR allows us to locate both metallic and non-metallic services including PVC, plastic, and concrete pipes as well as conduits that cannot be detected by any other means.
GPR can not only detect a variety of materials, but also identify multiple closely-spaced utilities.
Advantages of Utility GPR
- Lightweight and portable
- Equipment is ideal for tough field conditions
- Quick set-up and usage
- Real time data display Depth range of 0-4 meters
- Identifies metallic and non-metallic objects
- Detect and map underground utility pipes, drums, storage tanks
- Identify depth and location of objects of all construction materials including concrete pipes, plastic drums, and fiberglass tanks
- Identify voids under man-made structures such as roads, runways, and buildings
