Whether it is during the construction, maintenance or renovation of a building, the location of metallic objects in the concrete must always be precisely detected. In addition, it is important to determine the condition of these metals and to estimate the severity of any existing corrosion. Maintenance work can thus be prepared and planned accordingly. The Elcometer 331 reinforcement detectors have been specially developed to fulfil all requirements for a high quality testing device. They quickly and precisely measure not only possibly existing reinforcements and their depth in the concrete, but also the concrete thickness. With the possibility to detect potential corrosion on reinforcements on the basis of the measurement and recording of half-cell values, these ‘all-in-one’ devices can be used for different requirements.
