Concrete Material Testing

Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Test

Objectives and significance: – Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity test is non destructive test like Rebound Hammer Test.  An ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) test is an in-situ, nondestructive test to check the quality of concrete. he strength and quality of concrete or rock is assessed by measuring the velocity of an ultrasonic pulse passing through a concrete structure. It is used for Understanding Homogeneity […]

Rebound Hammer Test for Concrete Strength

Objective and significance: – Rebound hammer test is a Non Destructive test unlike cube compression strength test. It means test does not break any specimen to calculate strength of the hardened concrete. This test is rapid and very convenient to use. Schmidt hammer test is also another name of rebound hammer test. Rebound hammer test

Compressive strength of concrete, Cube test and Procedure

Objective and significance: – Compressive strength of concrete is capability of the concrete to resist compressive force. Concrete is good in compression and steel is good in tension. That is why concrete and reinforcement of steel is good combination to give strength to structure. Compressive strength is the main property of the concrete. So knowing
