Bridge Decking Testing Equipment
The testing process can detect blow holes, inclusions or thin areas in 'sprayed-type' membranes. Because the concrete contains a small amount of water, it is electrically conductive and a DC Pinhole Detector can be used to create a high voltage which is passed over the surface by the use of a brush electrode. An alarm will sound to identify any small defects which can be rectified so that the integrity of the coating can be verified.
