Combined NDT + Mathematical Modeling

In sensitive projects, where owners, contractors, and consultants are not interested in intrusive methods,  combined NDT methods and the use of mathematical models can be beneficial. Our experts can help you estimate the strength of concrete with ease and confidence:

  • Nuclear power plants
  • Hydro dams
  • Water and Waste water treatment centres
  • Trunk sewers and Tunnels

 

When concrete break values are low as a result of cold weather, exposure to freezing temperatures, concrete pour delays, or poor concrete mix, SonReb method proves valuable.
