It is recommended to use the probes with dry point contact (for example UK1401). Preparations for Testing 1. For determination of concrete’s solidity in structures you need preliminarily to build the calibration dependence.
  • Page 29 Ultrasonic tester UK1401 The exception is made for building the calibration dependence for estimation concrete’s solidity at engineering testing, when the difference in concrete’s age is not regulated. 6. On each area with the help of magnet device the location of reinforcement in the concrete is detected and then with the help of ultrasonic device the ultrasonic velocity (time) in it is measured.
