Evaluation of the Soniscope for Nondestructive Testing of Portland-cement Concrete Pavements


Book Description

The report presents the results obtained from the soniscope instrument for use in the nondestructive testing of portland-cement concrete pavements. Essentially, the instrument was tested to determine if consistent velocity measurements could be obtained with the transducers in a position vertical on the prestressed, reinforced, and plain concrete pavements. Also, of interest during the investigation was the maximum distance through portland-cement concrete for which consistent velocity measurements could be obtained. (Author).

Investigation of Soniscope Testing Procedure


Book Description

Tests were made to investigate apparent anomalies and discrepancies between results obtained with two types of instruments in use for the determination of ultrasonic pulse velocity in concrete--one type having been recently acquired and the other having been in use at WES for approximately 15 years.
