Concrete density estimation by rebound hammer method [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2016 Concrete is the most common and cheap material for radiation shielding. Compressive strength is the main parameter checked for determining concrete quality. However, for shielding purposes density is the parameter that needs to be considered. X- and -gamma radiations are effectively absorbed by a material with high atomic number and high density such ...

Calibration and Reliability of the Rebound (Schmidt) Hammer Test [PDF]
Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2013 One of the most widely spread techniques to estimate the compressive strength of concrete is the rebound hammer test, also known as Schmidt Hammer test. In spite of a large number of scientific works trying to calibrate the test, to identify the parameters affecting its results and to estimate its reliability, the original Schmidt curve is still ...

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2023 A number of destructive and non-destructive tests were conducted on rock samples collected from various zones in northern Iraq. So far, for Iraqi rocks, few studies have correlated Schmidt hammer rebound (R) with both unconfined compressive strength (UCS)

Repeatability of concrete rebound hardness using comprehensive statistical analysis
Journal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences, 2023 The reliability of the result significantly affects the use of the Coefficient of Variation (within the test variation), which reflects the variability of the concrete properties rather than the standard deviation.

Revised Rebound Hammer and Pull-Out Test Strength Curves for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020 Rebound hammer tests and postinstalled pull-out tests are commonly used for evaluating the compressive strength of ordinary concrete, and the strength of concrete is estimated by strength curves.

Comparison between Destructive and Non-Destructive Test on Concrete [PDF]
Eurasian Journal of Science and Engineering, 2017 Compression strength is the most important factor in concrete structures, and there are two methods to evaluate that compressive strength, destructive and non-destructive method.

Rammed Earth Construction: A Proposal for a Statistical Quality Control in the Execution Process [PDF]
, 2020 Unlike other common contemporary construction materials such as concrete, mortars, or fired clay bricks, which are widely supported by international standards and regulations, building with rammed earth is barely regulated.
