Description
Concrete Surface Resistivity
Surf™ is a laboratory test device for rapid, easy and accurate
measurement of the surface electrical resistivity of concrete based on
the four-probe (Wenner-Array) technique. The Surf™ patented technology
automatically measures resistivity around the concrete specimen using
four channels of 4-probe array (located at 90° from each other). The PC
software generates the required reports according to the standard
specifications.
Surf™ can be used to determine the chloride
permeability of concrete in accordance with AASHTO TP95 and the upcoming
ASTM standard. The measurement data can be used for durability-based
quality control of concrete as well as the service life design of
concrete structures.
Surf™ is a unique device for automatic 4-channel resistivity
measurement suitable for investigating the micro-structural properties
of concrete including:
Durability-based quality control of concreteDiffusion of chloride in concreteSetting time of fresh concreteCrack detection in concreteWater content in fresh concrete
