Can anyone help me somehow in this matter. Thanks in advance Post Reply      Translate            11:18 Aug-14-2009 ezio Other, Retired ex Laboratory Technical Manager OMECO Research Centre, Italy, Joined Sep 2008 273 Re: radiography in concrete In Reply to bassouli at 02:17 Aug-14-2009 (Opening). 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.

Yes we use Radar technique to detect rebar and it depth but is not sensitive enough to detect the corrosion of reinforcement. Post Reply      Translate
