CONTROL OF THE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE SURFACINGS /IN RUSSIAN/

BECAUSE OF THE PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED, CONTROL PROCEDURES RECOMMENDED IN SPECIFICATIONS ARE FAR TOO CUMBERSOME. THE PRINCIPLE OF THESE CONTROL PROCEDURES LEADS TO CRITICISM ALSO: THE CONCRETE IN THE SAMPLES IS GENERALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE CONCRETE IN-SITU. ACCORDING TO THE AUTHORS, TESTS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT ON CORES TAKEN FROM SURFACINGS. EQUIPMENT IS AVAILABLE TO CARRY OUT THESE SAMPLINGS UNDER SATISFACTORY CONDITIONS. THIS METHOD GIVES MORE COMPLETE INFORMATION THAN THE STANDARD METHOD. /LCPC/RRL/
