Structural Assessment
Use GPR to inform structural assessment with accurate reinforcement layout and slab thickness data.
GPR structural assessment from Corvus is part of our gpr concrete scanning service. Structural engineers need accurate reinforcement layout and member geometry. We deliver GPR data that goes straight into the assessment with no guesswork — depth, spacing, layout, slab thickness, and concealed conditions, all captured non-destructively.
Built around the question being asked.
A surveyor passes a high-frequency antenna over the surface in a grid pattern. The antenna emits short electromagnetic pulses. Anything with a different dielectric to the host concrete — steel, water, voids, plastic conduit — reflects part of the signal back. Software builds a depth-indicative map of detectable reflectors and likely target positions within the scanned area. Targets are then marked up on the slab itself and supplied as a digital deliverable.
For structural assessment specifically, the brief drives the choice of frequency, density, and reporting style. We quote a method that fits your access window, your accuracy requirement, and the downstream use of the data.
What you get
- On-slab marker plan in survey paint or chalk
- Annotated PDF report with depths and locations
- Digital DXF / DWG plan compatible with your CAD software
- Photographs of marked-up areas

Calibrated. Qualified. Defensible.
- 01
Calibrated kit checked at the start of every session, with the calibration record supplied in the project pack.
- 02
Surveyors qualified for the method, signed off on the report by the person who did the work — no anonymous deliverables.
- 03
Reporting written for the engineer or contractor who has to act on it, not for the file.
- 04
Same-day quotations and a date in the diary. UK-wide coverage. No minimums on small jobs.
