Assessing the Rebound Hammer Test for Rammed Earth Material
Rammed-earth (RE) is a construction material manufactured from the soil. The soil is compacted at its optimum water content, inside a formwork to build a monolithic wall. RE material is attracting renewed interest throughout the world thanks to its sustainable characteristics: low embodied energy, substantial thermal inertia, and natural regulator of moisture; on the other hand, the existing hi...
متن کاملFirst Exploratory Study on the Ageing of Rammed Earth Material
Rammed earth (RE) is attracting renewed interest throughout the world thanks to its "green" characteristics in the context of sustainable building. In this study, the ageing effects on RE material are studied on the walls which have been constructed and exposed for 22 years to natural weathering. First, mechanical characteristics of the "old" walls were determined by two approaches: in-situ dyn...
متن کاملApplication of Soft Computing Methods for the Estimation of Roadheader Performance from Schmidt Hammer Rebound Values
Estimation of roadheader performance is one of the main topics in determining the economics of underground excavation projects. The poor performance estimation of roadheader scan leads to costly contractual claims. In this paper, the application of soft computing methods for data analysis called adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system- subtractive clustering method (ANFIS-SCM) and artificial neu...
متن کاملInfluence of Surface Preparation Method on the Concrete Rebound Number obtained from Impact Hammer Test
For concrete strength detection in structures different testing procedures are being used. For nondestructive testing of concrete strength built in the construction the most used impact hammers in technical practice are those of Schmidt system. The hammer rebound value on concrete is influenced by number of factors, these includes the treatment of the test area. In the article there are present...
متن کاملAnalysis of Impact Hammer Rebound to Estimate Rock Drillability
In this paper, the piston rebound common to both the Schmidt Impact Hammer and downhole hammer drills has been analyzed and calculated by means of stress wave theory and the energy conservation law. A quantitative relationship between the amount of rebound of the piston and the impact resistance index, or hardness of the rock, has been established. Those analytical results will not only be of b...
