Anisotropy is expressed as the direction-dependent change of material
properties and it is a very important parameter to the correct determination
of the concrete quality. For the aim of determining the concrete anisotropy,
geophysical measurements in the study were carried out on the reinforced
concrete samples with different strengths, before concrete strengths were
determined from Uniaxial Compressive Strength test. Since the propagation
direction of concrete pores and saturation type of it is important
parameters in affecting the concrete anisotropy, prepared samples were cured
as oven-dried, water-saturated, and dried in outside. Thus, the effects of
curing conditions on the anisotropy of reinforced concrete were investigated
by geophysical measurements. For this purpose, ultrasonic P and S wave
measurements were made on two opposite surfaces of cubic samples with
different reinforcement diameters. In addition, a total of 8 resistivity
measurements were performed by taking two diagonal measurements on each
surface in except of reinforced surfaces of the sample. The velocity and
resistivity anisotropies of samples were determined by using the anisotropy
relations given in the literature. As a result, it is determined that while
reinforcement diameter has no distinctive effect on anisotropy, curing
conditions are especially very effective on resistivity anisotropy.
