Testing Instrumentation

Concrete Durability Apparatuses

Multi-channel test cells engineered for rapid chloride permeability, ionic migration, and restrained shrinkage monitoring under strict ASTM and national standards.

Rig Specifications

Four Specialized Systems

Chloride Permeability

RCPT Apparatus

Measures electrical conductance through cylindrical concrete specimens to assess resistance to chloride penetration. Supports 3, 4, 6, or 8 isolated channels with real-time current monitoring.

Ionic Migration

RCMT System

Measures precise chloride migration coefficients by accelerating ion transport under controlled external voltage conditions. Includes automated, multi-channel temperature monitoring and standalone data logging.

Reinforcement Testing

ACT Corrosion Cells

Accelerates rebar oxidation within concrete cores at controlled polarization potentials. Each station features autonomous auto-trip protection to prevent cross-contamination between neighboring cells during specimen breakdown.

Restrained Shrinkage

ASTM C1581 Crack Rings

Measures tensile stress buildup and determines cracking age in restrained mortar and concrete rings. Equipped with precision micro-strain bridges connected to high-resolution ST Microcontroller analog acquisition boards.
