At the end of 30, 90, 180 and 360 cycles of freeze-thaw, the cylinder specimens were tested for
RCPT as per ASTM C1202.

RCPT test results also suggest that for any target strength, chloride penetration value of RAC may be reduced by replacing 50% RA with IFS.
Measurements of soil resistivity conducted with a resistivity cone penetration test (
RCPT) give high-resolution results thanks to copper ring electrodes distributed on the electrical module of the cone, spaced 3 cm (Wenner array).
RCPT test was made on the all the five different mixes, the following observations are made.
Researchers used 25 plain, binary, and ternary (a mixture containing three parts) concrete mixtures containing up to 55 percent of Class F or Class C fly ashes--and, in some cases, fine limestone powder with different aggregate types and maximum sizes--to evaluate the correlation between the
RCPT and the surface resistivity test.
(NASDAQ:
RCPT) at a price of USD 232.00 per share in cash, the company said on Tuesday.
The optimum replacement of cement by SF in the ternary blended concrete was predicted by Rapid Chloride Penetration Test (
RCPT).
The
RCPT functions on the principle that when a concrete core or cylinder is placed in a test cell and voltage is applied between electrodes on each end, chloride ions move toward the positive electrode.
The rapid chloride permeability test (
RCPT) is increasingly being used because of its simplicity.
