Paper Details

A numerous methods of destructive and non-destructive testing have been carried out in the Laboratory. The need ofevaluation the in-situ mechanical properties of the concrete together with the seismic vulnerability assessment were the reasons ofcarrying out such amount of test. As non-destructive testing, the surface hardness methods, the ultrasonic methods and the combinedmethods have been chosen for the purposes of quality control and in-situ concrete strength estimation. As destructive methods todetermine the strength estimation. As destructive methods to determine the strength of the in –situ concrete, the extraction ofcylindrical specimens (core) from some structural element has been employed. After having briefly described the structure under testand having presented the result of the testing campaign, we investigate the following aspects: the variation of the mechanicalproperties of the in-situ concrete, the reliability of the combined methods, the need to calibrate the resistance obtained Non destructivemethods with the strength of cylindrical specimens (cores) extract from some structural elements in the proximities of the Nondestructive test.
