Assessing the Rebound Hammer Test for Rammed Earth Material [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2017
Rammed-earth (RE) is a construction material manufactured from the soil. The soil is compacted at its optimum water content, inside a formwork to build a monolithic wall.

Testing of SFRC by the Schmidt Rebound Hammer

MRS Proceedings, 1990
AbstractThe rebound number, its relationship to fundamental frequency and correlations with compressive strength and erosion - abrasion resistance are discussed. Nine mix proportions were used. The w/c ratios were varied from 0.30 to 0.65. The volumetric percentage of hooked steel fibres was varied from 0.25 to 2.0 vol.% at the w/c of 0.30; at the ...

Evaluation of schmidt rebound hammer testing: A critical approach

Bulletin of the International Association of Engineering Geology, 1993
In the present paper, a critical approach to the evaluation of Schmidt hammer testing is attempted. Through a statistical analysis of field measurements on sandstone blocks from the archaeological site of Delphi (Greece), it was shown that there is an inconsistency in the correction method proposed by the manufacturer, in relation to the direction of ...

Applying Support Vector Machines in Rebound Hammer Test

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
There are several nondestructive testing techniques available to test the compressive strength of the concrete and the Rebound Hammer Test is among one of the fast and economical methods. Nevertheless, it is found that the prediction results from Rebound Hammer Test are not satisfying (over 20% mean absolute percentage error).

Evaluation of Schmidt Hammer Rebound Hardness Test Holders

Geotechnical Testing Journal, 1984
Abstract An evaluation is made of three different holders for Schmidt hammer tests on rock core in the laboratory, including steel angle, V-notch, and semicircular groove holders. The differences are small, but it is shown that the V-notch holder gives consistently higher rebound hardness values.
