RIS Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Systems can accurately and nondestructively “see” through solid pavement materials, such as asphalt, concrete and soil to detect subsurface objects and determine the condition and thickness of the material examined. The IRIS is an ideal technology for detection of bridge deck delaminations, voids, subsurface moisture accumulation and the thickness of asphalt pavement layers…All at highway speeds!

Series of Articles on Seismic Analysis
I had an earthquake engineering course in my geological engineering undergraduate program, and an excellent teacher, but man, the math gave me fits! Well, apparently my time has finally come to make the effort to understand it again. A retired Canadian geophysicist/engineer is writing a series of articles on seismic analysis.
