Concrete Non-Destructive NDT Test Equipment
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.

Rebar Locators
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.

Corrosion Testing
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 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 Porosiscope and Chloride Field Systems allow the user to rapidly evaluate mechanisms that cause corrosion. The Porosiscope 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.
