The data example
on the right contains post-tension cables and is
displayed using GSSI's new Super 3D module. These
data were obtained at the top level of a parking
garage in Minnesota, on an area recently repaired
and overlaid with concrete.
The progression of the
three depth slices clearly indicates that the
reinforcement elements trending left-to-right
display the typical, draped pattern of post-tension
(P.T.) cable installation. As the P.T. cables extend
from one end of the slab to the other, they also
"sag" between their primary support elements -
almost to the bottom of the slab.
Upper 3D depth slice shows top of tension cables
(left-to-right) "draped" over reinforcement at left,
center and right.
In middle depth slice, the same cables begin to
appear in the two gaps where they couldn't be seen
at shallower depths.
Deeper "sags" in the cable seen more clearly than
draped regions, which were prominent in the
shallower depth slices.
