The Transportation Research Board (TRB) will conduct a webinar titled “Resistivity Measurements in Concrete”
that will detail the latest advancements in resistivity measurements in concrete.
Wednesday, April 13, 2016
2:00-3:30PM ET
The webinar will discuss the status of standard test method development for both bulk and surface resistivity. This webinar will also mention factors that affect resistivity measurements, as well as examples of implementation of resistivity measurements.
This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committees on Durability of Concrete, Properties of Concrete, and Concrete Materials and Placement Techniques. Participants must register in advance of the webinar, and there is a fee for non-TRB Sponsor or non-TRB Sustaining Affiliate employees.
Professional Development Hours (PDHs): A certificate for 1.5 PDHs will be provided to attendees who register and attend the webinar as an individual.
Webinar Outline
- Department of Transportation’s need for improved test method
- Examples of resistivity measurements implementation
- Surface resistivity standard test method development
- Bulk resistivity standard test method development
- Factors that affect resistivity and interpretation of the results
- Question and answer session
The first 60 minutes of the webinar will be for presentations and the final 30 minutes will be reserved for audience questions. The Registered Continuing Education Program (RCEP) categorizes this webinar activity as relating to health, safety, and welfare including core technical.
Learning Objectives
At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Differentiate the difference between bulk and surface resistivity measurements
- Discuss the status of test methods that are under development
- Interpret the results of resistivity measurements in light of influencing factors
