ATS is a leader in inspection services throughout the Southeast. We offer a wide range of inspection services and engineering support for both new construction projects and existing structures.

Concrete Radiography
Obstructions can be located with 100% accuracy with reliable radiographs. X-rays give us the ability to identify rebar, conduit, and post-tension cables in concrete structures up to 24” thick. Our services are guaranteed to give you the results you need.

Ground Penetrating Radar (G.P.R)
Using radar technology, we can locate post-tension cables and rebar in concrete up to 32” thick. This non-intrusive inspection can be employed at any time, eliminating the need for a “radiation barrier”.

G.P.R. can reveal the depth of concrete up to 18”. Block walls and concrete structures can be scanned for proper rebar placement. 3-D computer imaging is available for formal reports and archiving.

Concrete Coring
ATS is capable of coring from ¼” to 16” diameter locations to provide a complete concrete evaluation at your location. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
