CORINTHI offers various on-site DT tests for all types of construction materials and structural elements including;

Concrete Cores

Concrete cores is a destructive test used to determine on-site concrete conditions when the in-place concrete quality is doubtful and/or when relevant project information and history are not available.

Concrete cores are used to determine the following;

1.       Concrete general conditions;

2.       Voids and honeycombing existence;

3.       Internal cracks existence and its depth;

4.       Concrete compressive strength.

5.    Other mechanical and physical properties.

Asphalt Cores

Asphalt cores is a destructive test used to determine on-site asphalt conditions for quality control, when the in-place asphalt is doubtful, and/or when relevant project information and history are not available.

Asphalt cores are used to determine the following;

1. Asphalt layers thicknesses;
2. Bonding between asphalt layers;
3. Degree of compaction;
4. Cracks/ honeycombing existence and its characteristics;
5. Other mechanical and physical properties.

Test/ Inspection Pits

Test/ Inspection Pits is a destructive test used for inspection and to determine on-site conditions of various structural elements and construction materials when the in-place conditions are doubtful, and/or when relevant project information and history are not available.

Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) Test

The DCP test aims to determine, mainly, the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) for pavement layers (Base, Sub-base, Topping, and Embankment layers). Furthermore, this test is also used for determination of mechanical properties of natural ground for design purposes.
