Integrity Checking of Structures

Integrity checking on structural load tests, Concrete coring & testing for compressive strength and Concrete cover meter survey.

Structural integrity of structures could be assessed using appropriate testing. Matter Laboratory can provide this service to its clients and the general tests being executed to assess the integrity of structures are:

Structural load tests
Concrete coring & testing for compressive strength
Concrete cover meter survey
Rebound (Schmidt) Hammer Survey
Half Cell Potential Survey
Electrical Resistivity Survey
Powder sampling and determination of Chloride ingression profile
Depth of Carbonation test

Delamination Survey
Foundation exposure & inspection
Small concrete break-outs as a window exposure for inspection of rebars
Sulphate content analysis of concrete
Pull-off testing
Pull-out testing
Crack mapping & determination of crack dimensions
GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey
