Use of Ground-Penetrating Radar for Detecting Voids Underneath a Jointed Concrete Pavement
A survey of a jointed, reinforced concrete pavement with ground-penetrating radar indicated that the equipment provides a nondestructive inspection technique that can be used at a minimum rate of 5 lane miles of pavement per hour and with only minimal interference with traffic. The coring of some slabs and subsequent use of a devised water test revealed that the radar was very effective in detecting voids deeper than 1/8 in but considerably less effective in spotting shallow voids. It has been shown that information derived from a radar survey can be very useful in developing a sound and cost-effective slab stabilization operation through the proper placement of grout holes.
