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 ...

A shortage of skilled labor continues to be the dominate issue in the construction industry, and rightfully so. However, delays in construction schedules have always been a thorn in the side of ...

With every passing day the Mule provides opportunities beyond our original expectations. Since the 467ci engine belongs to HPP editor Tom DeMauro, it is at our beck and call. This affords HPP the ...

Scan technology is essential for testing the digital content of large-volume devices. By using scan, you can make the device itself responsible for some of the “test” chores, and you can shorten the ...

Defects can occur naturally during composite fabrication, and damage can be induced by impacts in service, but these tend to be relatively uncontrolled events. It was desired to induce an easily ...

President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...
