USE OF THE SONISCOPE BY CONCRETE DIVISION, U.S. ARMY ENGINEER WATERWAYS EXPERIMENT STATION

THROUGH THE YEARS SONISCOPES HAVE BEEN SUBJECTED TO A NUMBER OF TESTS TO DETERMINE (1) REPRODUCIBILITY, (2) THE RELATION OF VELOCITY TO OTHER PARAMETERS, (3) THE EFFECT OF SPECIMEN SIZE AND PATH LENGTH ON VELOCITY, (4) THE EFFECT OF MOISTURE CONTENT ON VELOCITY, (5) THE EFFECT OF AGGREGATE PARTICLE SIZE ON VELOCITY, AND (6) THE EFFECT OF THE CONDITION OF CONCRETE.
