- Borescope investigation to locate buried objects.
- Concrete hardness testing – hammer rebound surveys and delamination tests
- Rebar location using ferrous scans and high-frequency pulse radar tools.
- Rebar mapping
- Tensile tests and residual stress analysis – pull-off, pull-out tests
- Static and dynamic load testing – to test floor strength
- Corrosion identification using half-cell potential mapping
- Carbonation testing – test resistivity and depth
- Pressure testing – pneumatic and hydrostatic tests
- Concrete humidity and moisture testing
- Ultrasonic testing and surveys to check for subsurface cracking and other defects.
- Dust and diamond core sampling
- Steel coating and paint sampling
