Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 For definitions of terms used in this test method, referto Terminology C 125.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A steel hammer impacts, with a predetermined amountof energy,

6、a steel plunger in contact with a surface of concrete,and the distance that the hammer rebounds is measured.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is applicable to assess the in-placeuniformity of concrete, to delineate regions in a structure ofpoor quality or deteriorated concrete, and to esti

7、mate in-placestrength development.5.2 To use this test method to estimate strength requiresestablishing a relationship between strength and reboundnumber. The relationship shall be established for a givenconcrete mixture and given apparatus. The relationship shall beestablished over the range of con

8、crete strength that is ofinterest. To estimate strength during construction, establish therelationship by performing rebound number tests on moldedspecimens and measuring the strength of the same or compan-ion molded specimens. To estimate strength in an existingstructure, establish the relationship

9、 by correlating reboundnumbers measured on the structure with the strengths of corestaken from corresponding locations. See ACI 228.1R4foradditional information on developing the relationship and onusing the relationship to estimate in-place strength.5.3 For a given concrete mixture, the rebound num

10、ber isaffected by factors such as moisture content of the test surface,the method used to obtain the test surface (type of formmaterial or type of finishing), and the depth of carbonation.These factors need to be considered in preparing the strengthrelationship and interpreting test results.5.4 Diff

11、erent hammers of the same nominal design may giverebound numbers differing from 1 to 3 units. Therefore, testsshould be made with the same hammer in order to compareresults. If more than one hammer is to be used, perform tests ona range of typical concrete surfaces so as to determine themagnitude of

12、 the differences to be expected.5.5 This test method is not intended as the basis foracceptance or rejection of concrete because of the inherentuncertainty in the estimated strength.6.

An instrument guide is provided to center the

18、reboundhammer over the impact area and keep the instrument perpen-dicular to the surface.6.4 VerificationRebound hammers shall be serviced andverified annually and whenever there is reason to question theirproper operation. Verify the functional operation of a reboundhammer using the test anvil desc

19、ribed in 6.3. During verifica-tion, support the test anvil on a bare concrete floor or slab. Themanufacturer shall report the rebound number to be obtainedby a properly operating instrument when tested on an anvil ofspecified hardness.NOTE 2Typically, a rebound hammer will result in a rebound number

20、of 80 6 2 when tested on the anvil described in 6.3. The test anvil needsto be supported on a rigid base to obtain reliable rebound numbers.Verification on the test anvil does not guarantee that the hammer will yieldrepeatable data at other points on the scale. The hammer can be verifiedat lower reb

Some users compare several hammers on concrete orstone surfaces encompassing the usual range of rebound numbers encoun-tered in the field.7. Test Area and Interferences7.1 Selection of Test SurfaceConcrete members to betested sha

22、ll be at least 100 mm (4 in.) thick and fixed within astructure. Smaller specimens must be rigidly supported. Avoidareas exhibiting honeycombing, scaling, or high porosity. Donot compare test results if the form material against which theconcrete was placed is not similar (see Note 3). Troweledsurfa

23、ces generally exhibit higher rebound numbers thanscreeded or formed finishes. If possible, test structural slabsfrom the underside to avoid finished surfaces.7.2 Preparation of Test SurfaceA test area shall be at least150 mm (6 in.) in diameter. Heavily textured, soft, or surfaceswith loose mortar s

24、hall be ground flat with the abrasive stonedescribed in 6.2. Smooth-formed or troweled surfaces do nothave to be ground prior to testing (see Note 3). Do not compareresults from ground and unground surfaces.NOTE 3Where formed surfaces were ground, increases in reboundnumber of 2.1 for plywood formed

25、 surfaces and 0.4 for high-densityplywood formed surfaces have been noted.5Dry concrete surfaces givehigher rebound numbers than wet surfaces. The presence of surfacecarbonation can also result in higher rebound numbers.6The effects ofdrying and surface carbonation can be reduced by thoroughly wetti

26、ng thesurface for 24 h prior to testing. In cases of a thick layer of carbonatedconcrete, it may be necessary to remove the carbonated layer in the testarea, using a power grinder, to obtain rebound numbers that are represen-tative of the interior concrete. Data are not available on the relationship

27、between rebound number and thickness of carbonated concrete. The usermust exercise professional judgment when testing carbonated concrete.7.3 Do not test frozen concrete.NOTE 4Moist concrete at 0 C (32 F) or less may exhibit highrebound values. Concrete should be tested only after it has thawed. The

28、temperatures of the rebound hammer itself may affect the reboundnumber. Rebound hammers at -18 C (0 F) may exhibit rebound numbersreduced by as much as 2 or 37.7.4 For readings to be compared, the direction of impact,horizontal, downward, upward, or at another angle, must be thesame or established c

29、orrection factors shall be applied to thereadings.7.5 Do not conduct tests directly over reinforcing bars withcover less than 20 mm 0.75 in.NOTE 5The location of reinforcement may be established usingreinforcement locators or metal detectors. Follow the manufacturersinstructions for proper operation

30、 of such devices.8. Procedure8.1 Hold the instrument firmly so that the plunger isperpendicular to the test surface. Gradually push the instrumenttoward the test surface until the hammer impacts. After impact,maintain pressure on the instrument and, if necessary, depressthe button on the side of the

31、 instrument to lock the plunger inits retracted position. Read the rebound number on the scale tothe nearest whole number and record the rebound number. Taketen readings from each test area. No two impact tests shall becloser together than 25 mm (1 in.). Examine the impressionmade on the surface aft

32、er impact, and if the impact crushes orbreaks through a near-surface air void disregard the readingand take another reading.9. Calculation9.1 Discard readings differing from the average of 10readings by more than 6 units and determine the average of theremaining readings. If more than 2 readings dif

33、fer from theaverage by 6 units, discard the entire set of readings anddetermine rebound numbers at 10 new locations within the testarea.10.
