METHOD FOR LOCATING REINFORCING IRONS IN REINFORCED CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION, AND INSTALLATION FOR IMPLEMENTING SAME

摘要

P THE INVENTION ALLOWS TO DETERMINE, ON THE SURFACE OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION, THE PROJECTION OF REINFORCING IRONS ON THIS SURFACE, AND THIS EVEN IF THE THICKNESS OF CONCRETE BETWEEN SAID SURFACE AND THE REINFORCEMENT IS LARGE . /P P BY MEANS OF AN ALTERNATIVE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD, THE REINFORCING IRONS 2 ARE INDUCED, THEN THE HEAT RADIATION IS MEASURED IN THE SURFACE AREA TO BE EXAMINED. THE ALTERNATIVE FIELD IS ADVANTABLY EMITTED BY AN INDUCTION COIL 5 WOUND IN A PLANE SPIRAL AND ASSOCIATED WITH AN INDUCTION HEATING INSTALLATION. A MEASURING DEVICE ALLOWS TO DETECT, AND EVEN POSSIBLE TO VIEW, THE PROJECTION OF THE REINFORCEMENT ON THE SURFACE EXAMINED. /P P APPLICATION: BUILDING AND PUBLIC WORKS, PARTICULARLY SECOND WORK AND DEVELOPMENT. TOOLS FOR WORK IN THIS AREA. /P
