·         Bridges

 
 

Ponte Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

 

 
 

o    Quality control survey of construction and condition

o    Detection of the tendon ducts and differentiation from untensioned reinforcement as well as the determination of the depth, enabling targeted drilling to avoid damage of the ducts due to intrusive post-tensioned bridge investigations

 

 

Bridge deck inspection

Exemplary radargram tension ducts

 

 
 

o    Bridge deck inspection due to inhomogeneities und possible defects as delamination of the cover and sealing or deterioration within the concrete due to chloritisation etc.

o    Digital video recording of the bridge deck surface conditions

at the base of the bituminous cover of a bridge deck

 
 
 

o    According to requirements the survey is accomplishable either from the top of the bridge deck, or, at a respective increasing time and operating expense, out of an underbridge unit or the box girder

·         Other Structures

o    Inventory control of the tensioned and untensioned reinforcement of all types of reinforced concrete structures

o    Inspection and determination of the depth of coverage of the reinforcement.

o    Detection of inhomogeneities und possible defects as voids, corrosion, ore moisture penetration etc. inside of masonry or concrete parts of buildings

 

 

 

    Inspection of a lock wall

 

 

 

 

 
 

Utility and pipeline construction, earth and foundation work:

o    Three dimensional inventory control of metallic und non-metallic utilities; determination of position, depth and cover
