Book Rapid Measurement of Concrete Pavement Thickness and Reinforcement Location

Download or read book Rapid Measurement of Concrete Pavement Thickness and Reinforcement Location written by William G. Weber and published by Transportation Research Board National Research. This book was released on 1976 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents and presents the results of a study that evaluated currently available nondestructive testing systems that appeared to have potential for supplementing or replacing coring in determining concrete pavement thickness and reinforcement location. The evaluation was done primarily in the field. The principal work consisted of the systems under on-the-job conditions on eight paving projects in six states. The measurement technique were employed in conjunction with statistical acceptance criteria evolved in the course of the study.

Book Evaluation of the Soniscope for Nondestructive Testing of Portland cement Concrete Pavements

Download or read book Evaluation of the Soniscope for Nondestructive Testing of Portland cement Concrete Pavements written by George M. Pace and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents the results obtained from the soniscope instrument for use in the nondestructive testing of portland-cement concrete pavements. Essentially, the instrument was tested to determine if consistent velocity measurements could be obtained with the transducers in a position vertical on the prestressed, reinforced, and plain concrete pavements. Also, of interest during the investigation was the maximum distance through portland-cement concrete for which consistent velocity measurements could be obtained. (Author).

Book Use of the Impact echo Method in Nondestructive Measurements of the Thickness of New Concrete Pavements

Download or read book Use of the Impact echo Method in Nondestructive Measurements of the Thickness of New Concrete Pavements written by Gerardo G. Clemeña and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nondestructive impact-echo (IE) method offers a simple means for introducing compressional stress waves into a concrete element or slab and measuring the resonance frequencies associated with the reflections of the waves from any internal voids and the bottom of the slab. It is relatively effective for detecting internal voids or delaminations in concrete, which is the application for which it was developed. It may also be possible to use the method for indirect measurement of the thickness of a slab if the wave propagation velocity in the concrete is known. This study was conducted to determine whether the IE method, by itself, could replace the use of coring for quality-assurance measurements of the thickness of concrete slabs in newly built pavements. The results from tests conducted on three pavemems indicated that the wave velocity varied so much, not only between pavements but also within a pavement, that unacceptable errors can result when an average velocity is determined (through limited coring) for a pavemem and subsequently assumed for the entire pavement. To reduce the error to an acceptable level, the wave velocity at any test location must be measured to within an acceptable accuracy by another independent method. In pursuit of this approach, an indirect-transmission procedure based on ultrasonic (UT) measurement was incorporated and tested. This combined IE/UT procedure was able to measure thickness with absolute errors of 5 mm in one pavement and 7 mm in another, at a 90% probability. These results can be considered encouraging since the current procedure requires that the length of a core reported to the nearest 3 mm be the average of several measurements around the core and, in some cores, these measurements can have a spread of as much as 13 mm. In addition, it is expected that these errors can be reduced easily with the use of a transducer with a smaller contact face that would be less sensitive to roughness on the surface of grooved concrete pavements.
