The identification of damages to quay walls and dams require specific inspection techniques. Acoustic profilers are very efficient tools for the detection of cavities or other structural anomalies. They provide fast, reliable and georeferenced slices of vertical and inclined structures, even in poor visibility conditions.
Monitoring efficiency is particularly enhanced and client-oriented with G-tec's dedicated BankView software that allows the client to playback himself the cross-sections, in order to select the most critical areas and to take the right decisions for further investigation or remedial works. |
In case visual inspection is possible, small ROVs provide sharp video pictures without the limits inherent to divers.
Underwater positioning can also be added for absolute XYZ georeferencing of the pictures.
