An educational video on the concept and measurement techniques of concrete electrical resistivity and its application in the durability-related studies in concrete materials. Parameters affecting the resistivity measurement are described.
The fast-paced environment of the construction industry results in a constant search for better and more efficient ways to evaluate the quality of concrete. Despite…
In this blog, we learn the similarities in results and the differences in procedures between Concrete Electrical Resistivity (ASTM C1876) and the Concrete RCPT method (ASTM C1202). Likewise, we will discuss the advantages of concrete resistivity equipment as opposed to other devices.
Concrete is a porous material which contains microscopic voids known as pores. These pores range in size, vary in connectivity (pore structure) and can be…
Potholes are a huge problem all over North America, but nowhere are the detrimental effects more evident than in Canada’s capital, Ottawa. According to CTV…
As the demand for new concrete structures continues to increase, contractors need better and more efficient ways to test concrete quality and durability. For this…
