IMPULSE METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THE CONSTRUCTION SPEED OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BRIDGES

THE APPLICATION IS DESCRIBED OF TWO NONDESTRUCTIVE IMPULSE METHODS, VIZ., THE ULTRASONIC AND THE SONIC HAMMER METHODS FOR CHECKING THE QUALITY OF CONCRETE. THE TWO METHODS ARE COMPARED GIVING THEIR ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES ESPECIALLY IN RELATION TO SPEEDING UP THE CONSTRUCTION OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BRIDGES. /AUTHOR/
