Buildings, 2023 Enhancing the assessment of compressive strength and the efficiency of rebound hammers in non-destructive testing for high-strength concrete is an urgent issue in construction engineering. This study involved C50 to C90 high-strength concrete specimens, utilizing rebound hammers with nominal energies of 4.5 J and 5.5 J, along with a compression machine.

European Journal of Engineering Research and Science, 2020 A comparative analysis between Rebound Hammer and Pullout method in testing concrete was conducted in this study. Experimental analysis were carried out to compare the correctness between the two testing method in estimating the strength of concrete. Different cube (cubes of 175 x 175 x 175) samples were prepared using two mix designs of 1:2:4 and 1:3 ...
