Proceq GP8000 Ground Penetrating Radar Portable Concrete Scanner

The actual achievable depth depends strongly on concrete properties, moisture, reinforcement density and the target itself; the manufacturer’s maximum-depth figure should therefore not be treated as a guaranteed scanning depth.

GPR Live software

The GP8000 works wirelessly with an iPad and the Proceq GPR application. Depending on the software/license configuration, it supports functions such as:

• A-scan/envelope views
• Migrated and non-migrated visualization
• Time-slice imaging
• 3D visualization
• Augmented Reality (AR)
• Measurement annotations
• Photos, notes and voice annotations
• CSV, JPG, PNG and SEG-Y data export
• Reporting and data sharing through the Screening Eagle ecosystem

GP8000 vs. conventional rebar scanner

The GP8000 is more than a simple rebar locator. GPR can detect both metallic and non-metallic objects at greater depths, including plastic conduits and pipes, whereas dedicated electromagnetic rebar scanners are generally better suited to accurately measuring the cover of the first reinforcement layer.

Best suited for: contractors, structural engineers, concrete inspectors, NDT technicians, bridge/pavement investigators, and anyone needing to understand what’s inside concrete without drilling or destructive investigation.

Key applications

• Locate reinforcement/rebar before drilling, cutting or coring
• Detect live electrical wires and cables
• Locate pipes, conduits and other embedded utilities
• Measure/investigate slab and concrete thickness
• Identify voids, delamination and other subsurface features
• Investigate bridge decks and pavements
• Perform structural/as-built investigations
