9780849329845: CRC Handbook on Nondestructive Testing of Concrete

Synopsis

The CRC Handbook on Nondestructive Testing of Concrete provides a comprehensive review of the various nondestructive methods for evaluating concrete in the field and in the laboratory. The book describes the operating principles for each method presented and practical information is provided to facilitate performing the tests and interpreting the results. Test methods are divided into two broad categories. The first category includes methods intended primarily for measuring in-place strength or stiffness. These include the surface hardness, penetration resistance, pullout, breakoff, maturity, resonant frequency, pulse velocity, and combined methods. The second category includes methods intended primarily for assessing the condition of existing structures or measuring properties other than strength. These include magnetic/electrical, radioactive/nuclear, radar, stress wave propagation, infrared thermography, and acoustic emission methods. The handbook is intended for concrete technologists, engineers, and students who need the latest information regarding available methods for quality control or in-service investigations of concrete structures.
