Can anyone help me somehow in this matter.

Radiography is not convenient method to this scope. Better and cheaper are electromagnetic methods.

You will need to shoot at right angles to get depth and resolution will depend upon thickness of section examined, and size of rebar relevent to any aggregate in the mix. For very thick sections you are going to need real penetrating power using Colbalt 60 or a LINAC. There are other methods you might want to investigate such as electromagnetics mentioned in another repsonse or a portable ground penetrating radar device.    Reply  Translate  Close   Badr Assouli Badr Assouli 04:58 Aug-15-2009 Re: radiography in concrete In Reply to John O'Brien at 14:21 Aug-14-2009 . thank you You talk about parallax radiograph procedure (double exposure) ? we already use this procedure. Yes we use Radar technique to detect rebar and it depth but is not sensitive enough to detect the corrosion of reinforcement.    Reply  Translate  Close

Product Spotlight Extended Range Variable Wall® Piping Calibration Blocks for Longseam Inspection StandPH Tool Reference Standards This set of two blocks has been specially designed for situations where ultrasonic examination tak ... es place circumferentially or “around the curve” for applications such as inspection of longseam welds in piping and vessels. Jointly designed by PH Tool and Holloway NDT, the blocks feature side-drilled hole reflectors positioned within novel compound-curves, each with multiple thickness steps. The unique design results in a light and compact form factor, with the largest block weighing just over 15 lbs and spanning just 16 ¾”. Coverage is provided for nominal pipe sizes from 6” to 10” in the small block and 12” to a whopping 56” in the large block. The compound OD curves and multiple wall thicknesses actually exceed ASME requirements, providing exceptional signal response and measurement accuracy. Properly managing beam divergence off the ID and stabilizing beam skew due to probe rocking is essential to maintaining a consistent calibration when inspecting lengthwise on curved surfaces. > 5 Showcases5 Videos VeeScan AirCraft Wheel Inspection StandEther NDE The VEESCAN offers maximum flexibility, has a proven mechanical design and records of breakdown-fr ... ee operation of over 365 days.
