Giatec SURF with 4 x 8in Sample Holder

Surf is a laboratory non-destructive test device for rapid, easy and accurate measurement of the surface electrical resistivity of concrete based on the four-probe (Wenner-Array) technique according to AASHTO TP 95-11, and pending ASTM specifications. Surf™ has a unique and customized setup, which enables the measurement of electrical resistivity with high accuracy by reducing the duration of the test and minimizing ambient effects.

The Surf provides a test cradle for 4"x 8" and 6" x 12" cylinders, which provides four (4) 4-sensor arrays positioned at 90° intervals around the cradle. Surf™'s patented technology automatically takes measurements at each of the sensor points around the cylinder and then repeats the process for all 8 measurements in less than 15 seconds. The included PC software takes this information and generates the reports required by the standards.

Applications:

• Performance-based, quality control testing
• Estimation of chloride diffusion coefficient
• Service-life design of concrete structures
• Remaining life estimation of structures
• Crack detection in under load concrete
• Monitoring the setting time of fresh concrete
