Unseen voids and cracks can silently compromise your concrete structures that were designed to withstand immense pressure. Over time, the void and cracks would lead to weakened foundations, water ingress, and even structural failure if left untreated. Identifying voids and cracks early is essential for ensuring long-term durability, safety, and cost-effective maintenance.
At Sonicon, we integrate Concrete Void & Crack Detection as part of our advanced structural assessment services, utilizing Xradar™ technology to precisely locate and map subsurface defects. By combining Sonicon’s expertise with the accuracy of Xradar™, we help engineers, contractors, and asset managers make informed decisions, preventing costly repairs and structural risks.
Concrete Void & Crack Detection is a non-destructive testing method that identifies hidden voids, delamination, and cracks within concrete structures. Voids often develop due to improper compaction during construction, deterioration from environmental exposure, incompatible surface preparation, or excessive load stress over time. Cracks, on the other hand, may result from shrinkage, thermal expansion, or structural movement.
Using Xradar™ scanning technology, we can detect these flaws without damaging the concrete, ensuring accurate assessments of a structure’s condition and guiding necessary repairs or reinforcement before problems escalate.
- Structural Safety: Undetected voids and cracks weaken load-bearing capacity, leading to potential failures.
- Preventative Maintenance: Early detection reduces repair costs and prevents extensive structural damage.
- Waterproofing Integrity: Identifies weak points where water intrusion can accelerate concrete deterioration.
- Long-Term Durability: Ensures buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure remain safe and operational.
- Quality Assurance: Confirms the integrity of newly constructed or refurbished structures.
- Non-Destructive Testing – Xradar™ scanning is deployed to assess the structure, providing high-accuracy corrosion detection without damaging the concrete.
- Data Analysis – Our team interprets the results, identifying problematic areas and detecting affected zones.
- Comprehensive Reporting – Actionable insights are provided, helping engineers, contractors, and asset owners make informed decisions about maintenance, repairs, or strengthening.
- Bridges and Infrastructure
