Reinforced cement Concrete are most adopted construction material in the world. As the growing usage, requirement of assessment of the Strength of a RCC structure without damages the existing structure needed. This could be because of various reason as importance of the structure heritage or newly build, to check the newly constructed by the contractor the actual strength proposed against the delivered as well as to assess the work of contractor whether it is satisfactory or not.. In order to meet above factors, a study was carried out to compare between Destructive Test (DT) of concrete and Non Destructive Test (NDT) of concrete of grade M30 was carried out.
A total of 18 concrete cube (150 mm x 150 mm x 150 mm) were cast with concrete mix of grade M30. Out of which on 9 cube were tested for compressive strength with compression machine resulting into destructive testing and 9 cube were also tested non-destructively with Schmidt Rebound Hammer. Compressive strength test results at curing ages of 3, 7 and 28days were collected and analyzed.
This paper represent the study of concrete, its workability, its density, design trials of concrete, compressibility test on concrete and testing the same sample for NDT. The results show a co-relation between destructive testing (compressive strength) and Non-destructive testing at different age i.e. 3 days 7 days and 28 days of concrete of grade M30.
