Case Studies
High Speed Rail Piers - Sewer Below
To build a high speed railway track above a sewer line that services a city with a population of approx. 500,000 is an engineering feat in itself! To place the piers that support that railway without compromising the sewer line below is an important problem to solve. Initially the client decided to go with a local contractor who said they could deliver accurate results. They failed. Daily construction delays resulted in of hundred of thousands of dollars $ lost. They asked Rock Solid Group to come back. The issue was solved in a few hours.
Divers Probe 30metres+ Water Pressure
$Millions costs for repairs of water pumps lead the client to determine that damage to the system resulted from ingress of sands and gravels from pipeline imbedments 30m+ below the surface. Application of the patented Wave Impedence Technology configured to operate remotely at great depths allowed for the mapping and identification of the deconsolidated zones.
Nuclear Power & Safety
1,000's of feet of water pipes keeps nuclear power cool. The amount of maintenance inspection required annually by regulators is daunt- ing. The low speed of inspection techniques used for decades limit- ed the quantity of assessments undertaken. Easy application, accura- cy and relatively fast data acquisition using the patented Broadband Electro-Magnetic (BEM) technique, has allowed many times more inspection and assessment within the same time and budget.
