Reinforcement Cover Survey (1m x 1m)
Reinforcement cover surveys measure the depth of concrete covering the steel reinforcement within a structure. Adequate cover is essential for protecting reinforcement from environmental exposure and corrosion.

The Process

Non-destructive scanning equipment is used to detect the position of reinforcement beneath the surface. Measurements are taken across a defined grid to determine the depth of cover.

The Reason

Insufficient cover can increase the risk of corrosion and reduce the durability of reinforced concrete structures.

The Application

Cover surveys are commonly used during construction quality checks and structural condition assessments.
