Anaheim, CA -- (SBWire) -- 01/16/2017 --In 2014 Pechanga California's largest Indian casino, announced its plan to implement a $285 million expansion to satisfy guest's desire for more recreational options other than gambling. This expansion includes a new hotel wing, a spa and salon, a fitness center, two restaurants and additional indoor and outdoor event space. Nightlife destinations such as Pechanga use a lot of power. Where there is power there is conduit! In order for these night life destinations, including Pechanga to continue to operate during renovations, it becomes vitally important to understand where subsurface hazards like conduit, rebar, and post tension cable exist before tackling any project that involves cutting or coring through concrete.
With nationwide coverage Penhall,is a go-to resource for casinos needing scanning across the US. In addition to Pechanga, Penhall has previously used GPR at the Graton Casino in Sonoma County, CA and Thunder Valley Casino near Sacramento, CA to locate rebar and post-tension cables in concrete slabs.
Southern California based Analyst, Chanda Drennen, used GPR to scan concrete in the existing hotel, the parking structure, and the new spa and salon building structure. She was able to locate conduit, rebar, and post tension cables in preparation for core drilling, the building of a kitchen, installation of anchor bolts in the ceiling, and cut outs for ducts.
