How does it work?
Principle of the Auto level
A level is a precision optical instrument designed to establish a horizontal line of sight for determining the height difference (elevation difference) between two points on the Earth’s surface.
Common Questions & Professional Answers
A concrete test hammer (commonly known as a Schmidt Hammer or Swiss Hammer) is a Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) instrument widely used in the construction industry. It assesses the surface hardness of concrete to estimate its compressive strength, making it ideal for evaluating structural quality, uniformity, and determining formwork removal time.
Working Principle: The device contains a spring-loaded steel hammer. When released, it strikes a plunger in contact with the concrete surface. The distance the hammer rebounds is measured as the Rebound Value (R-value). A higher rebound value indicates greater surface hardness.
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Standard Impact Energy | 2.207J (Suitable for standard construction concrete) |
| Spherical Radius of Plunger | 25 ± 1.0 mm |
| Calibration Value on Anvil | 78 - 82 |
CTH Series Advantages:
- 1High-Durability Springs: Uses imported premium springs with superior fatigue resistance for long-term stability.
- 2CNC Precision Machining: The core movement is manufactured using CNC machining centers, ensuring high precision in rebound values.
- 3Ergonomic Design: Improved pointer design for easy friction adjustment, housed in a high-strength 6061 aluminum alloy casing.
To obtain reliable data, it is recommended to follow the ASTM C805 standard:
- 1Surface Preparation: The test surface must be flat and free of loose material. Use the included Grinding Stone to smooth the test area.
- 2Test Pattern: Distribute 10-12 test points evenly across an area of approximately 150mm x 150mm.
- 3Avoid Interference: Do not test directly over large aggregates or rebar, as these can cause artificially high readings.
Before any major testing session, calibrate the device on a Standard Calibration Anvil. For the CTH series, the reading should be between 78-82.
No, it cannot. The rebound hammer primarily reflects surface hardness. While it provides a quick estimate of strength, it is significantly affected by environmental factors like moisture and carbonation.
In legal disputes or critical structural inspections, industry standards typically require Core Testing to obtain the definitive in-situ strength if rebound results are questionable.
Measurement results are influenced by several environmental factors:
1. Carbonation: In older concrete, a hard carbonated layer forms on the surface, which can cause artificially high rebound values. It is advised to remove this layer or apply a correction factor.
2. Moisture Content: Moisture reduces surface friction, leading to rebound values that are approximately 10%-20% lower than in dry conditions.
| Environmental Condition | Reading Trend | Recommended Action |
|---|---|---|
| Surface Carbonation | Significantly Higher | Remove carbonated layer or use correction factors |
| Wet Surface | Lower Readings | Ensure surface is dry or maintain consistent moisture |
| Standard Dry Surface | Most Accurate | Follow standard testing procedures |
