Expected Outcomes – Site Surveys  Understand what sort of job you can do yourself with minimal risk  Understand what sort of information can be obtained  Understand when you should get help  Have a little background in the common tests  You may be able to use with minimal training  Testing companies may use on site Lets take a closer look at this …

Strength Assessment – Early Age  Why Early Age Assessment  Check before lifting/stripping  Check before applying prestress  Check to stop curing Water retaining code = 75% f’c Bridges Code = 60% 60% f’c  Schmidt Hammer Method  Repetitive so establish conversion curve Accurate to 10-15% If 8MPa required lift safe to lift at 10MPa  Surface strength only  Maturity Measurement Method  Doubles as temperature measurement Cylinder strengths underestimate insitu strength 7 or 14 day specs overstate requirements

Strength Assessment  Check Old Structures  Check capacity for increased load Floor slabs when changing usage Buildings where heavy equipment to be located Bridges for increased capacity  Check continued capacity of historic structures Where no design information available  Check for progressive weakening Leaching of water retaining structures  Schmidt Rebound  No conversion curves available  Surface hardening due to carbonation  ±25% with carbonation allowance, ±50% no carbonation allowance

Strength Assessment  Rebound Hammer Rebound Hammer  Ultrasonics  Maturity  Pull off tests
