Accurate assessment of concrete strength with Schmidt hammer testing

At Red Laser, we provide reliable and efficient Schmidt rebound hammer testing services for accurate concrete strength assessments. Our team specialises in using the Schmidt hammer test, a leading tool in non-destructive testing, to measure the elastic properties and strength of concrete components in existing structures. This quick and reliable concrete hammer test aids engineers and construction professionals in ensuring the integrity and safety of concrete constructions. Whether you are assessing newly built components or overseeing existing structures, rebound hammer testing is essential for upholding structural stability and ensuring long-term durability.

With the Schmidt hammer test we can assess various characteristics of concrete:

  • Elastic properties
  • Surface hardness
  • Penetration resistance
  • Compressive strength
  • Uniformity of material
  • Surface integrity

How does the Schmidt rebound hammer test work?

The rebound hammer test procedure involves pressing the Schmidt test hammer against the concrete surface. The hammer releases a spring-driven pin, impacting the surface and rebounding back. The device measures the rebound distance, which correlates directly to the concrete’s compressive strength.

Rebound hammer testing offers versatility in assessing concrete structures. It serves multiple purposes, including:

  • Checking concrete uniformity: Ensure that the concrete has a consistent composition throughout the structure.
  • Detecting composition variations: Identify any discrepancies in the concrete mix that could affect structural integrity.
  • Identifying potential damage: Detect areas that may be deteriorating or are at risk of damage.
  • Estimating concrete strength: Provide accurate estimates of concrete strength across different sections of a structure.
