Project

An expansion program was underway at a large MidWest refinery and several 100+ year old roads were to be used to transport large equipment (weighing over 500 tons) to complete the project. EnTech was hired to check for voids and anomalies beneath the roadway to help assure safety throughout the process.

Our Technology

EnTech engineers used EnSITE IV technology to investigate the roadways, incorporating infrared energy pattern recognition and Ground Penetrating Microwave Radar to locate underground anomalies. Our patented, stacked technology allowed us to provide a precise detailed analysis of 15 anomalous locations.

The Personalized Solution

Exploratory excavation at the location of identified anomalies was performed by our client. At each location identified, various underground pipes, lumber and or structures were found. The structures were either removed or it was determined by visual inspection that it was safe to do a fill over.
