Statistical Analysis of Rebound Hammer Assessment on Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Abstract This research explores the use of non-destructive equipment (Schmidt Rebound Hammer) to investigate the state of reinforced concrete buildings. A total of 138 Slabs, 266 Beams and 210 Columns were assessed as structural elements spread across six (6) different buildings.

The Performance of Empirical Laws for Rebound Hammer Tests on Concrete Structures
The assessment of concrete compressive strength plays a key role in the analysis of the seismic vulnerability of existing buildings. However, the adoption of classical destructive tests is usually limited by their invasiveness, cost and time needed for ...

Characteristic Curve and Its Use in Determining the Compressive Strength of Concrete by the Rebound Hammer Test. [PDF]
During the construction of concrete structures, it is often useful to know compressive strength at an early age. This is an amount of strength required for the safe removal of formwork, also known as stripping strength.
