X-Ray Concrete Scanning Brisbane
What is Concrete X-Raying?
Concrete x-raying is a form of non-destructive testing used to detect voids and other anomalies within concrete structures. X-ray scanning is one of the most accurate methods for detecting these issues, and can be conducted on new or existing structures. This type of scan is often done on construction sites in Brisbane to ensure safe, high quality results. Concrete x-raying can detect potential hazards such as reinforcing bars hidden beneath the surface, which would otherwise go undetected until work had begun and causing serious damage or injury. With this tool, we are able to create highly detailed reports with exact measurements that support efficient decision making during building projects or inspections.
Why is Concrete X-Raying important?
Concrete X-raying is important because it helps to uncover and inspect any potential hazards that may be hidden beneath a concrete structure. It enables us to get an accurate and detailed report of the entire surface area. This technology also ensures safety on construction sites in Brisbane by helping to detect reinforcing bars that would normally go unnoticed, possibly causing serious damage or injury. By utilising this tool, many costly mistakes can be avoided in the construction process and safety can be ensured for all involved.

What is our process?
Concrete x-raying is a useful and highly accurate method for inspecting concrete structures. The process involves using specialised x-ray equipment to scan the surface of a concrete structure in order to detect any anomalies or voids that may be present. This type of scan is often done on construction sites in Brisbane in order to ensure safe and high quality results.
During the scanning process, we use high frequency radio waves to penetrate through the surface of the concrete and generate an image showing any hidden objects within it.
In order to ensure accuracy and detailed results, technicians need to prepare the area prior to scanning. This includes cleaning the surface of the concrete with an industrial vacuum cleaner in order to remove any dust, debris or other material that could interfere with the scan.
Once these preparations are complete, we begin our scan by positioning their x-ray equipment above the surface of the concrete structure and adjusting its settings according to their needs. We then take readings from various areas of the structure and record them on a computer for further analysis. In some cases, multiple passes over an area may be needed in order to get accurate readings.
After all readings have been collected, we analyse them using specialised software programs which allow us to accurately measure distances between objects detected beneath the surface as well as determine possible voids or defects within it. Based on these calculations, we can create highly detailed reports with exact measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Concrete x-raying is a useful and highly accurate method for inspecting concrete structures. The process involves using special x-ray equipment to scan the surface of a concrete structure in order to detect any anomalies or voids that may be present. The technicians use high frequency radio waves to penetrate through the surface in order to generate an image showing any hidden objects within it.
By utilising advanced scanning techniques, we are able to pinpoint potential dangers such as reinforcing bars hidden beneath the surface of structures with greater accuracy. This type of scan also allows for exact measurements which can inform decision making during building projects or inspections.
Prior to conducting their scans, we will clean the surface of the concrete with an industrial vacuum cleaner in order to remove any dust, debris or other material that could interfere with the scan. They will also use specialised masks and gowns in order to ensure they are not exposed to radiation while conducting their work.
We use specialised x-ray equipment in order to carry out their scans. This type of device emits high frequency radio waves which allows us to penetrate through the surface in order to generate an image showing any hidden objects within it.
The frequency of scans depend on the particular project and its requirements; however, it is generally recommended that they are conducted regularly throughout a building project or inspection in order to ensure safety onsite and avoid costly mistakes during construction works.
There are some minimal health risks associated with this type of scanning such as exposure to radiation however, these are mitigated by taking safety precautions prior to conducting scans including cleaning surfaces with an industrial vacuum cleaner as well as utilising specialised masks and gowns for technicians during their work.
A detailed report from a concrete x-ray scan includes exact measurements which can support efficient decision making during building projects or inspections.
Concrete x-raying helps identify potential hazards such as reinforcing bars hidden beneath surfaces which would otherwise go unnoticed until further work had been done causing serious damage or injury on construction sites in Brisbane. Utilising this type of scan enables informed decision making during building projects or inspections resulting in improved safety onsite and avoiding costly mistakes during construction works.
