When re-designing old structures, the necessary information about the reinforcement configuration and the quality of both the reinforcement steel and the concrete is sometimes not available. Sanacon offers the possibility of detecting the reinforcement in beams, columns and plates using non-destructive methods. Sanacon also offers destructive testing that is necessary to know the diameter of the reinforcement and/or the concrete compressive strength (by means of tests on drilled cores). With this information, stability agencies are able to test the load-bearing capacity of the structure against current standards.
