Destructive tests:
Time consuming & complex procedure.
Objective of NDT:
To determine the Elastic modulus .
To evaluate Density
To evaluate Strength
To determine cracks & voids
To observe the reinforcement arrangements.
To evaluate Quality & Workmanship.
To determine Surface hardness .
To determine surface absorption.
Rebound hammer:
Principle: The rebound of an elastic mass
Type of aggregate
Surface condition & moisture contents.
Curing & age of concrete.
Carbonation of concrete surface.
Proper use of equipment.
30 -60 ----Reduction up
to 5 %.
Below 5 ----Increase up to
7.5%
Moisture condition : UPV is proportional to the
moisture condition.
Presence of reinforcement steel.
drilling .
The samples are than conducted visual
inspection & other tests for determining comp.
strength.
Cores also used to measure density, water
absorption, indirect tensile strength.
Through chemical analysis , concrete composition
can also be found out.
Precaution : 1.Reinforcement bars should be
avoided .
2. Proper choice of core location .
Carbonation test:
Objective:
Saturation
Extent of drilling.
re- bar.
Magnetic effects from the aggregates or matrix of
the concrete.
Roughness of the surface.
Cross section ,shape of the bar.
