In preparation for operational upgrades at its Rawang facility, Perodua required a structural assessment of an existing concrete slab to detect for embedded utility cables and conduits before installing a forklift extension rail. With the building constructed in 2001 and no updated structural drawings available, identifying the condition of the slab and the presence of any embedded elements was critical before proceeding with drilling or installation.
Xradar™’s enhanced Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology was deployed to scan a 25m² slab within the factory. While the slab was initially expected to be 600mm thick, our team discovered during verification that it was actually 300mm. This allowed us to switch to our 2 GHz scanner for sharper, high-resolution subsurface imaging.
Using our cart-mounted scanning system, we completed the job in under 2 hours while the surrounding production floor remained fully operational. The scan successfully identified embedded conduits and confirmed the structural readiness of the slab, giving the client the data needed to move forward confidently, without invasive methods or disruptions.
