This articles reviews some of the most accepted and widely used nondestructive tests of thickness measurement for concrete elements. Concrete thickness asphalt thickness test for pavements mit scan t3 overview. Non destructive testing methods are used to evaluate concrete properties by assessing the strength and other properties such as corrosion of reinforcement permeability cracking and void structure.
It measures the time of travel of an ultrasonic pulse passing through the concrete. In the non destructive method of testing without loading the specimen to failure i e. Dynamic non destructive test. Thickness measurement can be of interest for engineers and technicians involved in the assessment of existing concrete elements such as slabs foundations or pavements or as a means of quality control qa in the construction of new concrete pavements.
We also have the cross hole ultrasonic monitor chum and a sonic echo foundation tester among our large. Non destructive testing of concrete ndt on concrete non destructive test is a method of testing existing concrete structures to assess the strength and durability of concrete structure. Without destructing the concrete we can measure strength of concrete. H 2880 concrete thickness gauge.
At present the ultrasonic pulse velocity method is the only one of this type that shows potential for testing concrete strength in situ.
