Geotechnical Mapping, Slope Stability, and Geohazard Assessment in Yiti, Muscat
Project Overview:
- Location: Unspecified Marble Site
- Objective: Utilize Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology to detect internal cracks within the marble over a 200 m² area in a single day.
- Area Covered: 200 m²
The Challenge:
Quality and integrity are paramount in marble extraction and processing. At the selected marble site, there was a pressing need to quickly and accurately identify internal cracks within the marble that could potentially undermine its quality and value. The task was to scan a 200 m² area, ensuring a comprehensive and accurate assessment within a single day.
Our Solution:
National Rocks deployed GPR technology, renowned for its speed and precision in detecting subsurface anomalies. Given the time constraint and the need for precision, GPR stood out as the ideal solution for real-time, non-invasive, and accurate scanning of the marble’s internal structure.
Execution:
In a meticulously executed one-day operation, the GPR equipment seamlessly scanned the 200 m² area. Every square meter was closely examined, with the technology offering real-time insights into the internal structure of the marble, making the detection of cracks efficient and precise.
Findings and Insights:
The GPR survey unveiled the presence of cracks located near the surface of the marble. The real-time data and visual representations enabled the immediate identification and mapping of these cracks, offering actionable insights for quality assessment and further processing.
Impact and Conclusion:
The success of the one-day GPR survey underscored the technology’s efficacy in delivering rapid, accurate, and comprehensive insights. The detected cracks, identified and mapped with precision, facilitated informed decisions on the extraction, processing, and utilization of the marble, ensuring optimal quality and value.
This project exemplifies National Rocks’ agility, precision, and commitment to leveraging advanced technology in addressing complex challenges, ensuring that quality and value are uncompromised at every step.
