What Is Concrete Geometry Testing and What Are Its Benefits
Since structural condition is of great concern to owners and users it is necessary to understand what lies inside them and where. Concrete geometry testing refers to the ability to find the location of steel reinforcing, post/pre tensioning, or conduits in concrete, or to measure the dimensions of a concrete element. Applications could include drilling a penetration (core) into a concrete slab, measuring the thickness of a slab or measuring the length of a pile. There are a lot of advantages associated with geometry testing of concrete. For instance, the thickness of a concrete element and its width are some of the major measurement indicators required during design and construction. With equipment capable of measuring concrete thickness, like the concrete thickness gauge, it becomes much easier and quicker to proceed with the work. The equipment is so portable that one can easily carry it to the specified testing area on a construction site. Advanced concrete geometr
