NDT
Concrete Strength Testers |
| This
category of products comprises the range of instruments
utilized to evaluate construction material strength. The
range of instruments is typically considered to be two parts.
The first are non-destructive field tests of compressive
strength. The second are tensile field tester systems to
either determine the tensile strength of an overlay or bond
material, or tensile strength of anchors embedded in the
concrete. The first group is pure Non-Destructive Testing
where the strength of the material is determined by correlation
to another parameter more easily available and readily apparent.
This is typically the hardness of the concrete or the resistance
to penetration by either a pin or probe. The Windsor Probe,
Windsor Pin and our line of Rebound Hammers all fall within
this category. These are widely used standard tests and
as such have seen use throughout the world.
The
second set of instruments is our concrete tensile testers.
These have been optimized to both test the strength of the
anchors and repair overlay material. They can be used to
test until failure or to simply verify that the material
will not be affected by a specific amount of force. A number
of considerations were taken into account when designing
this line of products, include viscous damping of the resultant
failure backlash, portability, and ruggedness.

This
category of products comprises the range of instruments
used to locate and determine size and depth of steel reinforcing
bar in concrete. The first type most widely used utilizes
a low frequency electromagnetic field to locate ferrous
objects within a structure. The second and latest technology
utilizes Ground Penetrating radar to locate steel and other
objects within a structure.
The HR Rebar Locator and the Datascan both utilize a low
frequency electromagnetic field to locate ferrous objects
in a structure. By closely monitoring changes in the electromagnetic
field the proximity of steel reinforcing bar can be determined.
The HR is our most economical model. It uses a simple analog
meter to determine the strength of the electromagnetic field
and correlate this to either the size of the rebar or the
distance to the rebar. The Datascan unit utilizes a more
sensitive digital system to monitor the strength of the
electromagnetic field. This allows the user more sensitivity
in locating steel at greater depth and more closely spaced.
The
Datascan MK II utilizes the state of the art in ground penetrating
radar technology. By sending out a high frequency pulse
and observing the reflected electromagnetic waves features
inside a concrete structure can be determined. The unit
implements a number of different ways to visualize the data
received, including a three dimensional image of the objects
within the structure. This unit represents the current cutting
edge technology in object location.
The
line of products represents the most effective and efficient
way to evaluate steel reinforcing bar in the field and utilizes

Ultrasonic
Concrete Testing |
This
category comprises the range of instruments that use sound
or stress waves in order to determine the properties of
concrete and other materials non-destructively. The first
and most widely used System is our V-Meter, which utilizes
the ultrasonic pulse velocity method for evaluating construction
materials in the field. Transducers are available for a
variety of frequencies from 24 KHz to 500 KHz. This unit
has also been modified to suit the special needs of ceramics
users and can be found as the Ultrapulse.
The
PIES, our revolutionary Portable Impact-Echo System, is
an advanced instrument for non-destructive detection of
flaws and defects in a variety of civil infrastructures
ranging from bridges, parking structures and buildings to
dams, piles, tunnels, tanks and marine structures.
Finally
our E-Meter System represents the state of the art in bench
top laboratory resonant frequency analysis of materials.
This unit comes standard with a test bench designed to handle
a variety of modes of vibration, including longitudinal,
torsional and flexural.

This
category comprises the range of instruments that evaluate
parameters related to the corrosion of the concrete or the
steel reinforcing bar within the concrete. The leading instruments
in this field are our Gecor Systems. These represent the
latest research and technology in determining the corrosion
rate of steel reinforcing bar in concrete. The Gecor 8 is
our most sophisticated system using a closed loop modular
confinement system in order to confine the linear polarization
test from outside parameters. The Gecor 6 is a more economical
method of determining corrosion rate measurement. These
will allow the end user to accurately locate areas of high
corrosion with out expensive demolition work and to estimate
the service life of the structure.
The
Ohmcor and Cormap systems represent more economical methods
of evaluating steel reinforcement corrosion. The Cormap
Systems use half cell potential mapping in order to identify
areas of probably corrosion. The Ohmcorr System is typically
used in conjunction with the Cormap system n order to verify
the presence of steel reinforcement corrosion. This older
technology is still widely used in the field.
The
Poroscope and Chloride Field Systems allow the user to rapidly
evaluate mechanisms that cause corrosion. The Poroscope
quickly and simply evaluates concrete permeability. The
Chloride Field System will rapidly evaluate field chloride
levels without expensive and time consuming laboratory tests.
Our
ASR Detect and Carbodetect systems are chemical indicators
to assist in evaluating the two leading causes of concrete
corrosion. This line of products represents the most effective
and efficient way to evaluate concrete and other materials
in the field and utilizes the latest in technology in order
to guarantee accurate results.
Finally,
the extensive range of our Holiday / Porosity Detectors
complement our Corrosion line and are used to detect the
pinholes, and porosity in order to prevent from corrosion.

Temperature
Monitoring, Moisture & Flow Testing |
This
category comprises the range of instruments that record
temperature and can then evaluate maturity of fresh concrete.
The
IQM System is the latest technology for concrete maturity.
Designed specifically for monitoring and analyzing fresh
concrete, the IQM Module is programmed with the required
Equivalent Age of the concrete under test. Once this preset
maturity number is reached, a visual indicator will flash
continuously, providing an effective, automatic indication
that the concrete has reached the desired level of maturity.
This with a readily available PC represents a fast and
efficient means of monitoring concrete maturity.
A
flexible and economical temperature monitoring system, the
IQT features extensive memory and graphic display of temperature
history. Similar to the IQM, the IQT System offers software
for uploading the temperature data to a P.C. through its
serial port. The temperature history can then be displayed
with respect to time. Also a Multi Channel Maturity meter
is available upon your request.
