Answer / vaibhav jadhav

Any is code not give the clause regarding demolishing of
structure if cube fails in 28 days. but IS 456 & 516 give
the clause if strength of cube is less than FCK then
proceed for NDT Test i.e Rebound hammer if fail then go for
Ultrasonic test after all the NDT fail then proceed for
Core cutter also if U found result less then FCK then go
for Retrofitting with suggestion of consultant.

Cube tests of concrete are failed at 7 days and 28 days.What is your next action?..

Answer / vimalsekar

Well. When Concrete cube test result fails at 28th day then
go for concrete core cutting and check the compressive
strength in it. Number of cores shall be as per the
engineer incharge's decision but should not be less than 3
nos. IS:456 says if the core test fails then go for load
test. IS : 456 also says that NDT can be done . But with
rebound hammer test only surface hardness will be known and
hence this test result is not reliable and hardly anyone
suggests for this test.
