Aging concrete and transportation infrastructure requires advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) to detect hidden defects, corrosion, and deterioration without damaging the structure. Materials Lab Inc. provides comprehensive concrete and infrastructure assessment services across Edmonton and Western Canada to support condition evaluation, rehabilitation planning, and life-extension programs.

Our Services Include:

  • Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)

    • Rebar depth and spacing mapping

    • Post-tension tendon and conduit location

    • Detection of voids, delamination, and honeycombing

  • Ultrasonic Testing

    • Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) for concrete quality and homogeneity

    • Pulse-Echo and Impact Echo for internal flaw detection and thickness measurement

  • Surface and Strength Assessment

    • Rebound hammer testing for in-situ strength correlation

    • Crack depth and defect localization

  • Corrosion and Durability Evaluation

    • Half-cell potential and corrosion rate mapping of reinforcing steel

    • Electrical resistivity and moisture profiling for corrosion risk assessment

  • Structural Condition Surveys

    • Bridge decks, piers, abutments, and parking structures

    • Industrial slabs, foundations, and containment structures

  • Transportation Infrastructure Diagnostics

    • Railway ballast and subgrade investigation using GPR

    • LiDAR corridor scanning for alignment, clearance, and deformation monitoring

Applications:

  • Highway bridges and civil structures

  • Transit and rail infrastructure

  • Parking garages and deep foundations
