The use of the non-destructive testing methods for determining the compressive strength of high performance concrete ensures high quality. Compressive strength test results are mainly used to ...

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 ...

Results that are obtained from concrete specimens during laying of concrete may not actually represent the concrete strength in the structure. In situ NDT (non-destructive testing) at several ...

Researchers have, for the first time, used a 'micropillar compression' technique to characterize the micro-scale strength of cement, allowing for the development of cement with desirable strength ...

When compressive strength tests of laboratory-cured cylinders fail to meet the specified acceptance criteria, core tests are commonly used to verify the strength and to obtain acceptance of the ...

Controls' Automax 5 series of Concrete Testing equipment features a fully automatic test cycle with a closed loop retraction. The load/time graph and the gradient are displayed in real time, while the ...

The Structural Dynamics and Materials Laboratories are part of the Center for Infrastructure, Energy, and Space Testing (CIEST). The showcase of the Structural and Materials Laboratory is the Fast ...
