Air/Water Permeability Test Device for Concrete

Field test for air and water permeability of concrete using the Figg technique.

Applications

• Service life estimation
• Coating verification test
• Determining chloride and carbonation penetration sensitivity

Features & Advantages

• Both air and water permeability are measured with the same device
• Permeability can be determined both on the concrete surface and within the concrete mass
• Porosity in mastics and surface mortars can be checked
• The test is non-destructive (only a small plugged hole is required) and can be performed completely on-site
• Each test can be completed in just a few minutes and provides reliable, repeatable results
• The test enables meaningful concrete durability predictions
