Some basic NDT techniques utilized to assess concrete structures include:Once concrete has hardened, it is important to determine whether the final structure is suitable for its designated use. To do ...

Nothing is truly set in concrete, and this is especially true for structures made of concrete. When structures made of concrete like bridges, buildings, and tunnels are loaded repeatedly over long ...

Ongoing research into limiting concrete form face surface defects with controlled frequency vibrators (CFVs) has shown great promise. Field investigations into limiting high frequency vibration to ...

Measuring the in-situ compressive strength of concrete in final structures is an essential but challenging process. Coring combined with non-destructive rebound hammer measurements provides the most ...

Currently, the rebound hammer is widely used for estimation of compressive strength of concrete as general testing method. Although rebound hammer has made great contribution for compressive strength ...
