Abstract:
Q. According to Provision 1.6.4.2 of ACI 301-16,1 a rebound hammer cannot be used for in-place strength testing. Does ACI recommend any other nondestructive testing (NDT) method for in-place strength evaluation? Q. My company will be placing a concrete slab foundation designed to directly support the base of a steel tank. Does ACI have any documents that discuss tolerances for elevation of such slabs after placement?
