Concrete Crack Measuring Microscope

Concrete Crack Measuring Microscope with 40x Magnification and Accurate Measurement

BS 8110: Part 2

The Crack Width Microscope, also known as a crack microscope or crack detection microscope, is a one-step crack width measurer. High definition device for measuring crack widths in walls of concrete and masonry, including masonry walls. Adjustable lamp unit, focusing knob and 40x magnification. Must have tool for structural integrity assessment, especially for inspecting buildings.

Measure Crack Width

Measuring crack width is part of concrete and masonry construction materials testing. As a crack detection microscope, it can measure crack widths in various structural materials. The Crack Width Microscope is a one step crack width measurer. The objective lens is placed on various surfaces over the crack and the focus is adjusted using the knurled knob on the side. The battery powered lamp adjusts to give optimal illumination and the eyepiece scale, which is marked with graded lines for measurement, can be turned 360° to align the optical measuring grid with the direction of the crack and the pitch of the crack. So you can get exact crack dimensions without damaging the surface with embedded measuring points or mounting embedded hardware rugged construction. Easy to use, so crack measurement is accessible for both professionals and non-specialists.

How it Works

The Crack Width Microscope is a precision instrument to measure cracks in concrete and masonry sturdy construction stand materials with exact crack dimensions. Here’s how it works: The examination of cracks using the microscope allows for precise inspection of crack width and orientation.

1. Place the Microscope: Place the objective lens directly over the crack on the concrete surface or masonry surface. This will give you accurate alignment for precise measurement.

2. Focus: Use the knurled knob on the side to focus. This will give you a clear image of the crack for measurement.

3. Illumination: The built-in battery powered lamp can be adjusted to give optimal illumination. This adjustable light source will make the crack visible even in low light condition.

4. Align the Optical Measuring Grid: Rotate the eyepiece scale 360° to align the optical measuring grid with the crack direction. This step is critical for measurement.

5. Measure Crack Widths: Use the dual optical scale with coarse divisions of 0.2mm and fine graduations of 0.02mm. This will give you detailed and accurate crack width.

6. Record Data: Record on a crack record sheet. This will allow you to measure again at the same location and monitor changes over time.

The Crack Width Microscope’s rugged metal housing, dual optical scale and built with quality will withstand harsh field conditions. Its high definition crack detection microscope and adjustable light source will give you reliable and accurate determinations, it’s a must have tool for concrete structure assessment. The microscope can also help assess the depth of cracks during examination.
