Improving Non-Destructive Concrete Strength Tests Using Support Vector Machines
Non-destructive testing (NDT) methods are important alternatives when destructive tests are not feasible to examine the in situ concrete properties without damaging the structure. The rebound hammer test and the ultrasonic pulse velocity test are two popular NDT methods to examine the properties of concrete. The rebound of the hammer depends on the hardness of the test specimen and ultrasonic p...
متن کاملNon-Linear Non-Destructive Evaluation of Concrete
This paper explains non-linear non-destructive evaluation of concrete aimed at examining the occurrence of non-linearity under non-linear wave propagation through the concrete. Standard cubic concrete sections in damaged and undamaged conditions were investigated. The specimen was first damaged under compression testing and then subjected to non-linear ultrasonic evaluation in two directions i....
متن کاملConcrete Interlocking Paving Blocks Compression Strength Determination Using Non-destructive Methods
In this paper, the non-destructive testing methods are analyzed in view of their usability in evalulation of the interlocking paving blocks’ compressive strength. Ultrasonic pulse method and impact method (Schmidt impact hammers) were chosen for testing. Testing methodology and way of the results processing considering requests of the national and European standards are described there. In addi...
متن کاملNeuro-fuzzy application for concrete strength prediction using combined non-destructive tests
The application of the neuro-fuzzy inference system to predict the compressive strength of concrete is presented in this study. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is introduced for training and testing the data sets consisting of various parameters. To investigate the influence of various parameters which affect the compressive strength, 1551 data pairs are collected from the tec...
متن کاملNon-destructive evaluation of in-place rehabilitated concrete pavements
Several in-place rehabilitation techniques have been used before placing an Asphalt Concrete (AC) overlay on Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavements in attempts to minimize reflection cracking. Among these techniques, "rubblization" of PCC has been recognized to be the most utilized procedure for the mitigation of reflection cracking in US. This paper presents the practices on the use of rubbl...
