Application of schmidt hammer and ultrasonic pulse velocity for structural integrity assessment in water dams
Abstract This study investigates the integration of Schmidt Hammer Rebound Numbers and Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) measurements to estimate the compressive strength of reinforced concrete in water dam structures. Unlike previous studies that rely solely on controlled laboratory correlations, thi...
