Rebound Hammer Test Essex
Our team carries out rebound hammer testing across Essex to provide a quick, non-destructive assessment of concrete compressive strength. Using a Schmidt hammer, we measure the surface hardness of concrete structures, giving engineers and contractors an indicative strength value without the need for core extraction or laboratory testing, making it a practical first step for condition assessment and quality control.
Our Rebound Hammer Testing Process
The rebound hammer is applied directly to the concrete surface, measuring the rebound value produced by a spring-loaded plunger striking the material. This value is then correlated to an estimated compressive strength, giving a fast, on-site indication of concrete quality across slabs, columns, walls, and other structural elements. Testing can be carried out across multiple locations on a structure to identify variation or areas requiring further investigation.
Rebound Hammer Testing Across Essex
Our team carries out rebound hammer testing across Essex and the surrounding area, supporting contractors, engineers, and building owners with fast, reliable results delivered on site. With more than 3 decades of surveying experience, SSIP and ISO accredited processes, and Safe Contractor, CHAS, and Constructionline approved working methods, we provide accurate testing at competitive rates, with the option to combine rebound hammer testing with other structural survey methods where a fuller picture is needed.
