Not all jobs are glamorous but they are still highly needed. This week we used Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to assess risks hidden below houses and buildings. Defects in the subsurface – voids, loose soils, sinkholes, water ingress, or hidden fractures – often remain invisible until they cause real damage. In earthquake-prone areas or regions Read more

Using combined GPR and EM methods at an old Airport Silo. New findings.
Key notes The use of non-destructive GPR and EM methods has become an essential component in technical projects, applied both during the initial stages of design and throughout the lifecycle of structures. These methods are invaluable not only for monitoring new constructions but also for investigating older structures. In the latter case, geophysical surveys can Read more
