Scan Tech NYC provides underground scanning technology for Manhattan construction industry
(UI) – Scan Tech NYC, a provider of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) scanning services, is making waves across Manhattan's construction industry. With an ever-changing skyline and round-the-clock development that's made NYC what it is, Scan Tech NYC’s GPR technology helps contractors seeking safe, precise, and efficient sub-surface scanning.
Manhattan has a labyrinthine network of subsurface utility lines and structures, some of which date back to the days of New Amsterdam. Meters thick concrete slabs and foundations present unique challenges for contractors, no matter how skilled.
GPR, or Ground Penetrating Radar, scanning has emerged as a vital service on construction sites across Manhattan. It allows contractors to peer beneath concrete foundations without breaking ground. Scan Tech's technology accurately maps out hidden structures like telecommunication lines, plumbing pipes, metal, rebar, electrical lines, and more.
One of the key advantages of Scan Tech NYC's GPR scanning services is its ability to locate underground impediments with precision and provide highly detailed read-outs that allow contractors to better plan and implement jobs like core drilling, sawing, concrete coring and much more. This not only ensures the safety of construction workers but also prevents costly delays and damage to existing infrastructure.
"Our GPR scanning provides a level of accuracy you wouldn't believe. If there's an important line down there, or something that might hurt one of your guys – we'll know about it long before you make a single cut,” said Scan Tech’s operations manager.
