A Comparative Analysis of the Rebound Hammer and Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity in Testing Concrete [PDF]
, 2012 This work presents a study on the comparison between some non-destructive testing tech-niques (Rebound Hammer and Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity). Tests were performed to com-pare the accuracy between the rebound hammer and the ultrasonic pulse velocity ...

An investigation of the possible extent of the re-spending rebound effect in the sphere of consumer products [PDF]
, 2002 A key method used to reduce the environmental impact of a product is to make it more energy efficient. Previous studies have found that the potential benefits from improved efficiency are often at least partially negated by increased use of the product.

Development of rating curves for concrete rebound hammer on concrete specimens from local aggregates [PDF]
, 1957 Frequently engineers find it imperative to determine the compressive strength of concrete as it exists in a structure. There are two methods of making this determination, either by a destructive or a non-destructive test.

Effects of hybrid polyethylene terephthalate fibre and fly ash on mechanical properties of concrete
Materials Research Express, 2022 Cracked concrete is a problem due to several factors such as poor maintenance, insufficient reinforcement or steel corrosion leading to crack propagation. There is a need to increase the load-bearing capacity of concrete and increase its life span.

Development of correlation graph between concrete compressive strength and rebound hammer number / Noor Abiedah Fawzi [PDF]
, 2006 Rebound hammer method is applicable in three distinct areas such as the uniformity, comparing the quality and the most controversial while at the same time also most widely used is estimating the concrete strength.
