Diamond Core Drilling
What is Core Drilling and Why Do You Need It?
Core drilling is a specialised technique that uses a rotating drill bit with diamond segments to create precise and clean holes in various materials, such as reinforced concrete, brick, and asphalt. Core drilling is an essential method for concrete testing, which is a vital process for structural engineers or contractors to assess the quality and durability of existing concrete structures. Concrete testing involves drilling core samples from the concrete and sending them to a laboratory for analysis. A written report is then prepared with the test results and recommendations. Concrete testing is important for ensuring safety and sustainability in the construction industry in South Africa.

Concrete Scanning
Exploring Concrete Scanning:
Concrete scanning is a useful technique of inspecting concrete structures before drilling, cutting, or coring. It uses Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology to locate and identify embedded objects within the concrete. This helps to ensure safety, accuracy, and efficiency in construction projects.
Offerings:
Detection of rebar, post-tension cables, pipes, conduits, and other objects
