C-Thrue ground penetrating radar

C- Thrue is a handheld ground penetrating radar that allows an accurate immediate investigation of reinforced concrete structures.

Ideal for construction and service companies and structural engineers as they can optimize the way they locate through C-Thrue:

• Armor
• Empty
• Post Tension Cables
• cavity
• Conducted
• any other object buried in the structure before cutting or drilling the reinforced concrete.

The ground penetrating radar allows you to accurately detect the first irons, but also the deeper ones thanks to a double polarization antenna. In addition, positioning and the automatic navigation system (Virtual Pad) increase productivity and reduce investigation time.

The width and positioning of the display allow the data to be viewed without being covered by the operator’s handle or hand. The automatic position and navigation system of this ground penetrating radar eliminates all the risks of error associated with traditional paper grey cameras.

Visualization in 3D models and automatic detection of rods and voids allow you to work safely and make necessary decisions without risk, especially when cutting or drilling in concrete needs to be made.

C- Thrue is easy and convenient to carry as it is small in size and lightweight, it is also equipped with advanced technology such as the use of augmented reality for visualization and sharing of data in 3D in real time or at intervals after acquisition.

 Why use a ground penetrating radar?

Ground penetrating radar, also known as GPR, is a non-invasive methodology used in geophysics, in the study of the first subsurface, which is based on the analysis of electromagnetic waves transmitted in the ground. This methodology provides, from a depth of a few meters up to the limit of a few tens of meters, a “section” of the ground investigated from the surface.

 Where to use a ground penetrating radar?

The most frequent use is to investigate hidden or buried structures, such as cavities and underground services (ducts, cables, network systems in general) or archaeological structures, search for structural damage, reinforcement positions and any anomalies of the concrete or masonry and stone artifact, such as walled doors and restoration work, deduce the thicknesses of tunnel lining.

 What are the advantages of using a ground penetrating radar for building investigations?

The use of a handheld ground penetrating radar offers numerous advantages for vertical inspections and analysis of reinforced concrete.
C-Thrue is a compact and portable instrument that allows you to perform precise investigations on

• walls
• Columns

and other vertical structures without the need for destructive interventions.
Thanks to its advanced radar pulse technology, the handheld ground penetrating radar can accurately detect rebar, cables, and defects hidden within reinforced concrete, ensuring real-time reporting and facilitating quick decisions in the field.

Ideal for construction and infrastructure maintenance projects, the handheld ground penetrating radar allows you to identify any anomalies in the structures, improving the efficiency of interventions and reducing costs and inspection times.
Its ease of use and portability make it the perfect solution for those who need non-invasive and fast inspections on vertical surfaces.
