Several types and different configurations of anchor bolts were tested for pullout and shear. First of all, M24 and M27 bolts used to support 3 advertisement boards with dimension of 12 m long and 5.65 m height each were tested under both pullout and shear. The pullout and shear loads were measured and plotted against […]
The existing condition and the remaining life lasting of the water storage structure were evaluated using water permeability test and concrete carbonation test
A 6-ton MRI Scanning machine was planned to place on the 1st floor of a Tower. To fulfill the specifications of the MRI installation, the existing vibration condition of the floor had been checked since vibration on floor will lead to the distorted images and affect the image quality from scanning. RE conducted the floor […]
2 buildings consisting of a 5-story building and a 2-story building were installed with sensitive machines, which fabricate the microelectronics components such as external hard drives. Those require a free-vibration condition. Thus, 70 locations of machine vibration were measured. In each location, vibration in all three axes including two horizontal directions (X, Y) and one […]
At a newly constructed school in Phuket, which consists of two building blocks, it was suspected that the strength of both the 1stfloor and the 2ndfloor precast slabs was not sufficient as it may have been shown in the design. Thus, a load test was requested to determine whether the structure was safe given the […]
RE Team performed the Precast Slab Load Testing to monitor the structural condition of a school in Phuket.
RE conducted the Air Void Detection Test to locate the air void inside RC beams at a factory.
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is widely applied to various types of infrastructures including high-rise buildings, bridges and tunnels. It is used to detect damage in the structure, determine damage locations, identify types of damage and assess the severity of damage.
The Load Carrying cCapacity Analysis is used to determine the capacity of the analyzed members or structures to determine whether the tested structures can carry the given load condition or how much load they can withstand. This analysis is necessary when the design details are missing or when there is uncertainty in the design or construction.
RE investigated real-time floor acceleration in a 5-story building which was displaying vibration and shaking due to road traffic.
