The Schmidt Hammer, also known as a rebound hammer or concrete test hammer, is a portable instrument for non-destructive comparative assessment of hardened concrete. A spring-loaded plunger impacts the surface and the rebound value is read from the instrument, then interpreted using the appropriate conversion information.

Key Features

• Mechanical rebound measurement
• Compact design for field inspection
• Suitable for concrete slabs, columns, walls and precast elements
• Testing method associated with EN 12504-2
• Supplied with carrying case, calibration anvil and conversion chart

Typical Applications

• Comparing uniformity across concrete elements
• Preliminary assessment of existing structures
• Construction quality-control checks
• Identifying areas requiring further investigation

Important Information

Rebound results are influenced by surface condition, orientation, moisture, aggregate and calibration. Compressive-strength estimates should be made by a competent person using an appropriate correlation and should not replace destructive testing where definitive strength is required.
