Non- destructive Testing of Concrete

NCNDT has established a facility for the non-destructive testing of concrete structures. This facility is capable of following jobs:

  1. Testing of concrete structures for uniformity and compressive strength.
  2. Determination of defects in concrete (voids, cracks, etc.).
  3. Testing of concrete structures for changes in properties with time.
  4. Ultrasonic testing of concrete structures.
  5. Determination of location of steel bars in concrete structures.

The concrete testing facility is equipped with Schmidt hammer, PUNDIT ultrasonic tester, rebar locator, fresh concrete tester, impact echo test system, radioisotope gauge and penetration resistance tester.
NCNDT is also in the process of enhancing concrete testing facility with the cooperation of Planning Commission of Pakistan.

Advanced NDT Techniques

NCNDT is in the process of up-gradation of its facilities in order to gradually achieve self reliance in the pre-service and in-service inspections of Class 1, 2 & 3 welds in pipes and components of Power Plants and National Industrial Units.
