GPRS was contracted by a sign company to scan over 500 grocery store parking lot areas all across the nation for new drive up sign footings. For this particular project, there was a very strict deadline and many stores to scan at.

Some GPRS project managers literally worked from dusk to dawn in order to provide our client with the field markings and job summary reports in order to keep pushing forward with the rest of the work needing to be done. All scanning conducted was implemented through our SIM process. Check out this link to learn more about our industry leading SIM training and process!

Our state of the art GSSI GPR equipment sends radio signals into concrete that send the data back instantly for real-time interpretation. The radio waves are safe for workplaces so there is no need for any stop in work for floors below or around the scan areas. GPRS also uses the RD-8100 Locator to locate live power and radio frequency (RF) signals underground. We can also detect utilities in or under concrete using our transmitter box which sends out a frequency via induction or conduction with an exposed or known surface utility line.

“GPRS deploys the best equipment operated by skilled project managers who know how solve your subsurface locating issue. Since our inception, GPRS has completed hundreds of thousands of projects in North America. Our accuracy rate on these projects? Over 99%.” (www.gprsinc.com)

GPRS technicians are commonly called for wide array of locating, such as concrete scanning for rebar, mesh, conduits, radiant tube heating, post tension cables, and any other utility that may be buried. We also scan for private and public utility locates, underground voids or vaults, footings, buried foundations, and Underground Storage Tanks (UST’s). All these tasks are all done in a safe, time efficient, non-destructive manner.
