Your Guarantee of Absolute Quality on the Construction Site
The new process-technology for testing fresh concrete
The complete system package for the accurate testing of your fresh concrete
Fresh Concrete Tester
For the rapid on-site measurement of water cement ratio,
slump, compressive strength and temperatureThe FCT
101 is a rugged electronic unit designed for easy on-site
use.
At last ! a quick and simple on-site quality control test for fresh
concrete.
Until now it has been difficult for site engineers to assess the
quality of concrete arriving on site. Other fresh concrete testing
methods do not yield their results until after the concrete has
been poured and cured.
Now this has all changed with the introduction of the FCT101 Fresh
Concrete Tester A rugged and reliable instrument which gives an
assessment of all the main parameters of fresh concrete within minutes
of it arriving on site.
The test is simple to perform, requiring no specialist skills, and rapid
. After calibrating the FCT101 the test takes about two minutes.
Quality Control Certification from the FCT 101
Software supplied with the FCT101 produces Quality Control Certificates
based on measurements taken using the instrument.
This evidence of the properties of the concrete gives the site engineer
the confidence to accept or, if necessary, to reject the concrete before
it is poured.
All the measurements taken from the fresh concrete can be stored in the
FCT 101 and transferred when convenient to a computer for further
analysis, or for use in the preparation of reports and Quality Control
Certificates.
