Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Test (UPV)
Description of NDT Services
- Rebound Hammer Test (RHT): Evaluates the surface hardness of concrete, which correlates to its compressive strength, offering a quick assessment of concrete quality.
- Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Test (UPV): Measures the velocity of ultrasonic waves through concrete to determine uniformity, detect cracks, and assess concrete quality.
- Core Cutting and Testing: Extracts cylindrical samples from concrete structures for laboratory testing to determine compressive strength and other properties.
- Carbonation Testing: Detects the depth of carbonation in concrete, which helps assess the potential risk of reinforcement corrosion.
- Half-Cell Potential Test: Measures the electrochemical activity of steel reinforcement in concrete, indicating the likelihood of corrosion.
- Cover Meter Test: Determines the depth of reinforcement cover and identifies the location of steel reinforcement bars in concrete structures.
- Load Testing: Verifies the strength and performance of structures under simulated loads to ensure they meet design requirements.
- Pull-Out and Pull-Off Tests: Assess the bond strength between concrete and embedded elements or surface coatings, ensuring structural reliability.
- Thermal Imaging: Uses infrared technology to detect temperature variations, which help identify hidden defects like moisture intrusion or voids in structures.
- Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR): Non-invasive technique that uses radar pulses to image subsurface conditions, useful for locating utilities, voids, and rebar in concrete.
- Pile Integrity Test (PIT): A low-strain pile integrity test is a non-destructive testing method used to assess the structural integrity of a pile. It involves applying a low-strain impact to the pile head and measuring the resulting stress wave propagation through the pile.
By combining these techniques, Vishwas Geotech ensures comprehensive evaluation and maintenance of infrastructure, helping clients maintain the highest standards of safety and durability.
