Journal of Urban and Environmental Engineering, Vol. 1, No. 1 (January to March, 2007), pp. 26-35 (10 pages) Abstract: This paper discusses the compressive strength of earth mortars. The goal is to ...

The use of the non-destructive testing methods for determining the compressive strength of high performance concrete ensures high quality. Compressive strength test results are mainly used to ...

Maturity and compressive strength of concrete is tested through both destructive and non-destructive methods. Destructive test involve damaging some of an element or the structure. Some would like to ...

Not all damage to a load-bearing structure is immediately apparent. So how do civil engineers find out that a bridge or a large hall is no longer safe? Many clues form a picture. Concrete structures ...
