Abstract
|
Concrete ER has been used as durability metric since it is a quick, easy, safe, and nondestructive method of assessing reinforced concrete field constructions. This paper's goal is to review the literature on electric resistivity (ER) as a nondestructive test in the construction industry. Mainly two methods are considered for electric resistivity measurement that is surface resistivity (SR) and bulk resistivity (BR). The factor influencing during the testing are mainly considered for review. Furthermore, multi-phase conductive models are carefully analyzed to understand the evolution of concrete resistivity. However, values vary in the connections noted by various studies. The discrepancies are often ascribed to the fact that ER values are influenced by numerous material and environmental conditions.
