State the importance of NDT and state working principle of Rebound hammer.

1 Answer

Answer :

Importance of NDT: 1. The strength can be tested without physical breaking of concrete; hence it is safe. 2. It can give internal flaws, cavities and homogeneity details of concrete within short period. 3. It avoids wastage of concrete, hence becomes economical up to certain extent. 4. It is applicable in any type and position of concrete members shows wide applicability. 5. Its results are simple and easy to interpret.

Working principle of Rebound hammer: Rebound hammer test method is based on the principle that the rebound of an elastic mass attached to plunger i.e. rebound number depends on the hardness of the concrete surface against which the mass strikes. If the rebound of hammer is more, it indicates surface is hard, solid and dry. But if rebound of hammer is less, then tested concrete may be soft, porous and moist.
