Infrasense was recently out in Big Sky Country scanning 31 bridge decks primarily located between Missoula and Glendive, Montana. The deck condition evaluations utilized a combination of ground penetrating radar, infrared thermography, rapid automated sounding, and high-resolution visual methods. Targeted locations will also be tested for chloride ion concentration on select decks.
Infrasense has recently added three new engineers to the staff in anticipation of a busy 2022! Parker Aubin (right) brings his 4 years of geotechnical engineering experience and passion for geophysics on board. Aidan Rolli (left) stuck around after his 2021 summer internship and is now full time, already contributing to a wide range of…
Infrasense was recently in Minnesota to carry out a pavement thickness survey using ground penetrating radar. The results will be used to assist with future pavement design projects. While there, one of our engineers captured this photo of our survey vehicle under the Milky Way!
Infrasense was in Lewis County, New York this past week completing GPR pavement thickness surveys for select county roads. The surveys will result in continuous pavement layer thickness information which will be validated by cores.

Infrasense engineers recently carried out a GPR scan on an interstate in Connecticut to evaluate pavement and bridge deck conditions. The results will be used to plan subsequent testing including FWD and coring, and ultimately to support the rehabilitation design.
Last month Infrasense performed a high speed pavement survey on a stretch of Interstate highway outside the transportation hub of Atlanta, Georgia. The purpose of the project was to determine the structure for approximately 17 miles of pavement. Did you know that Georgia contains 15 different Interstate highways? That’s good for tenth most in the…
In Spring 2018, Infrasense founder Ken Maser traveled to northern Israel to train a local team on how to collect Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) data for a network-level pavement survey. For the next seven months, the team collected 7000 km of pavement in 2240 management units. The data was continuously uploaded to Infrasense for quality…
This past summer, Infrasense surveyed 10 miles of interstate pavement and 23 bridge decks with ground penetrating radar. The objectives of the GPR survey included: Locating the lateral and longitudinal extents of the underlying PCC pavement and full-depth asphalt pavements Providing thicknesses of asphalt and PCC pavement layers Locating and quantifying deterioration in the underlying…
Infrasense completed a subsurface pavement structure investigation of 18 sections of pavement in Western Maryland using high-speed ground penetrating radar (GPR). The sections were surveyed in both driving directions to obtain continuous structure information for both bound and unbound material layers. The GPR results will be used to supplement Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) back-calculations to achieve…
This past summer, Infrasense conducted a multi-faceted non-destructive survey and report for 84 lane miles of a section of I-86, made up of abutted concrete panels. The project provided the client with a comprehensive set of condition results to identify and map out distressed panels along the roadway. Surveys were performed at normal driving speed…
