Rebound Hammer Testing
As per IS 516 Part 5 Section 4 : 2020
Civil Tech has Digital and Mechanical types of rebound hammer in accordance with IS 516. It can evaluate strength of the on-situ concrete.
It is a quick estimate of the strength of concrete. Since it simply gives an indication based on surface properties.
Objectives of the Test -
- To access the compressive strength of concrete with the help of suitable co-relations between rebound index and compressive strength.
- To access the uniformity of concrete.
- To access the quality of the concrete in relation to standard requirements.
- To access the quality of one element of concrete in relation to another.
