Validate hidden foundation integrity
Foundation iQ: predictive analysis for buried foundations
Traditional foundation testing for structures with hidden concrete foundations uses destructive, expensive and time-intensive methods, like core extraction and analysis.
Foundation iQ uses patented wave analysis to accurately model qualities like concrete strength, dimensions and voids, without the costs or complexity of digging.
It means you can quickly, safely and accurately predict the integrity, lifespan and future capacity of your assets at key intervals across their lifespan, such as:
- Construction and quality assurance
Perform early quality control assessments to validate material quality and construction processes for known and unknown assets - Scheduled maintenance and servicing
Predict degradation and take early preventive action to avoid more costly and disruptive intervention - Future development and design
Make better decisions about capacity enhancements (like additional antennae for telecommunications towers)
How it works
Foundation iQ is a complete solution for fast, accurate and cost-effective predictive foundation analysis. There are three components:
Handheld, cloud-connected IoT device
A field-ready portable tool that uses impact echo dispersive wave testing to analyze the dimension, density and integrity of concrete, wood and metal foundations.
Foundation analysis software
Translate echo wave signals into rich and accurate integrity insights using proprietary algorithms.
Cloud-based analysis and reporting
Securely upload and store foundation data for intuitive reporting and ongoing transparency.
Leave no stone unturned. Leave every stone untouched.
Accuracy
Dimension and material foundation signal analysis provides visibility into the integrity of known and unknown assets. Assess the condition of existing assets and new acquisitions with certainty to predict future needs and upgrade capacity with confidence.
Efficiency
Foundation iQ uses handheld sensors to generate compression waves and take signal readings in seconds. It’s faster, safer and more accurate than traditional foundation analysis methods, and requires no digging, excavation, core extraction or lab testing.
Traceability
Access a comprehensive database of integrity insights through intuitive readouts to report on foundation health and future asset capacity. Support confident, assured decision-making to optimize your maintenance budget and investments towards the areas of highest impact.
Wind
Foundation iQ supports efficiency, safety, longevity and repowering for concrete foundations. Our methods are faster, more accurate and cost less than traditional methods.

Telecoms
Foundation iQ has been helping telecom tower companies analyze, maintain and increase the capacity and longevity of their assets.
