| Compared with the concrete test hammers, the
ultrasonic instrument TICO is used for recording the properties
inside the concrete structure.
With the measuring of the transmission time and calculation
of the pulse velocity, concrete properties such as uniformity of
the concrete, cavities, cracks, defects due to fire and frost as
well as indirect modulus of elasticity can be determined.
According to the arrangement of the transducers, properties can
be calculated over the whole transverse section.
A large display, data evaluation and storage as well as
transfer to a printer or PC are possible.
