3.3 Examples of Measured Waveform   

NOTE:    The waveforms shown in Table 3.3-1 are typical examples. Various waveforms are 
measured depending on conditions of the concrete.

Examples of Measured Waveform

 

Comments

 

 

Waveform of impact force when 
hammering on healthy concrete 

It can be obtained as nearly bilaterally 
symmetric waveform at the peak.

 

 

 

Waveform of impact force when 
hammering on deteriorated surface of 
concrete

 

The rising time in the active phase is longer 
in comparison to the healthy concrete. The 
reason is that the time for the penetration of 
hammer with plastic deformation in the 
deteriorated surface is included. In contrast 
influence of the deteriorated surface is small 
in reactive phase.

 

 

Waveform of impact force when 
hammering on the surface of concrete 
with delamination: Case 1

 

This is the typical waveform that 
delamination is clearly observed in the 
relatively shallow site. The waveform is 
bilaterally symmetric in common with 
healthy surface, but there are some 
characteristics such as relatively small 
maximum value of the impact force and long 
contact time with hammer. It can be 
observed that the impact position shows the 
same behavior as the leaf spring. The 
waveform shows the fine bell shape but the 
duration time of the impact force becomes 
longer because of the low rigidity in 
comparison to the healthy concrete.
