What Is the Concrete Test Hammer Schmidt Hammer N-Type Used For?
Compressive strength is the main property by which concrete quality is judged, as it governs the load-bearing capacity and durability of a structure. The hammer is pressed against a smooth concrete surface until its spring-loaded mass is released and rebounds; the rebound reading, taken at a number of points, is related to compressive strength and compared across the member, so areas of lower reading show up as weak spots. Members must be at least 100 mm thick. The standards listed are EN 12504-2, 13791, ASTM C 805, BS 1881:202, NF P18-417, DIN 1048 and UNI 9189.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the N-Type test hammer measure?
It measures the compressive strength characteristics of hardened concrete without damaging the structure, and is also used to check uniformity of quality and to find weak spots.
How thick must the concrete be?
The test object should have a minimum thickness of 100 mm, so thin slabs or sections below that thickness are not suitable for testing with it.
Why is a non-destructive strength check useful on site?
It gives an indication of strength and uniformity across existing members without cutting cores, so many points can be checked quickly and weaker zones selected for closer investigation.
Which standards are listed for the hammer?
The standards listed for the N-type hammer are EN 12504-2, 13791, ASTM C 805, BS 1881:202, NF P18-417, DIN 1048 and UNI 9189.
