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 ...

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 247-262., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

UCS field estimation of intact rock using the Schmidt hammer: A new empirical approach [PDF]
, 2021 In the present work we discuss the results of a number of Schmidt hammer tests (total number of impacts N > 2,400) that were performed in situ on rock outcrops of different lithology (marl, calcareous marl, limestone, sandstone, quartz sandstone and ...

Compressive Strength Prediction Model of High Strength Concrete by Destructive and Nondestructive Technique [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesConcrete’s compressive strength can be tested in a laboratory before construction begins. Since concrete is a natural material and cannot be destroyed, it is not possible to determine its compressive strength through destructive testing.
