Description
E-Meter for Flexural Resonance of Concrete
Supports the following standards: ASTM C215, ASTM C666
The E-meter can determine flexural resonance of concrete under accelerated freezing and thawing cycles and aggressive environments, conforming to ASTM C215 and C666. It determines the resonant frequencies of the three modes of vibration and is the only method of calculating the following material parameters non destructively: Youngs modulus of elasticity, modulus of rigidity, Poissons ratio and damping constant. Frequencies are automatically scanned in one of four ranges. It can handle specimen sizes up to 6 inches (150mm) in cross section and from 1.75 inches (45mm) to 28 inches (711mm) in length. A semi-automatic feature facilitates the fast identification of resonance. Oscillator frequency range: 10 Hz to 100 kHz in 4 switched range Frequency indicator display: 6 digit LED Gate times: 1 sec. or 10 sec. switch selected, LED indicated accuracy: 20 ppm + 1 count over full operating temperature range.
