Video: Exterior Column Scanning with GPR from Swing Stages
Locating column rebar with Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) on exterior column faces at a hospital in Portland OR. Findings were marked directly on the column surface to facilitate installation of seismic reinforcement braces. Floors 10-17 were scanned. Columns were safely accessed with “swing stage” apparatus.
