Prediction of the Static Modulus of Elasticity Using Four non Destructive Testing [PDF]
The static modulus of elasticity (Es) is an important parameter in the analysis of hydraulic concrete structures, changes have been made to the regulation of construction; these changes require minimum values for the Es, so now, in addition to concrete ...
