Analysis of concrete taken from a loaded column by determining the modulus of elasticity

Sustainability places an emphasis on preserving and using existing structures, particularly those that are historically or artistically valuable. The preservation of buildings is closely related to a good assessment of their condition. When making a diagnosis, it is suitable to use non-destructive...

description Sustainability places an emphasis on preserving and using existing structures, particularly those that are historically or artistically valuable. The preservation of buildings is closely related to a good assessment of their condition. When making a diagnosis, it is suitable to use non-destructive methods to the greatest extent possible. However, these must also be complemented by core samples, which can be used to determine not only the compressive strength but also other important properties. The paper focuses on the evaluation of a reinforced concrete column that was gradually loaded until failure occurred. During loading, the quality of the concrete throughout the column was monitored using the ultrasonic pulse velocity method and, after loading was finished, the cores were taken from the column. The specimens, obtained from the core samples, were then carefully analysed using both non-destructive and destructive tests. The conclusion describes a possible approach to the assessment of concrete using a core examination.
