The purpose of core testing is to assess the concrete quality, deterioration and workmanship involved in batching, mixing, placing, compacting and curing of concrete. Cores are obtained from the element to be assessed using a HILTI DD 250 E Coring Machine using a diamond bit. Drilling water coolant is used to reduce friction during the coring.
With the use of the Ferroscan “Hilti PS 200”, the cores can be drilled within interfering with the steel reinforcement embedded within the tested element.
