In Melbourne, and Geelong when a company sets out to launch any new project, main purpose of concrete scanning is to accurately locate structures or objects in concrete.
This technique has been popular across the globe because it is a non-destructive (NDT) which consequently saves time and energy compared to its previous counterparts. This then results into its cost-effectiveness as it does not involved traditional processes like hitting or cutting through live electrical wires, post tension cables, or any sort of service in the structure frame work. This also eliminates intense noise pollution and inconvenience to the surrounding area.
