The traditional method of obtaining concrete strength and temperature data is outdated and time consuming. By the time you get a sample of concrete to the lab, hours and days have already been wasted trying to collect the data that you could get within minutes through Giatec SmartRock Plus Technology. This wireless, cloud-based system gives the contractor real-time data. And the best part is, the accuracy is unparalleled.
Break Test vs. Maturity Test
Break tests are the bread and butter to knowing the quality of your concrete. Countless cylinders of concrete have been transported and tested for the sake of field data and performance. SmartRock Plus eliminates this painstaking process and provides a better way through Maturity Testing. This method sends a probe into the concrete that is already in-place, giving you real-time estimation of compressive strength. No cylinders, no break tests, and less room for error.
How It Works
At a jobsite the SmartRock Plus sensor is attached to a spot where the rebar intersects less than 2 inches from the surface of the concrete and is then activated to transmit real-time concrete temperature and strength data to your mobile device. Obtaining this information on your mobile device is as easy as installing the free SmartRock Plus application. Add multiple sensors and check the performance of the mix from literally anywhere. This information can be shared with other project stakeholders, including ourselves. The data that is collected will in-turn help us better serve our customers.
As the producer we want to help you work smarter – not harder. We know the value of efficiency and reliability, especially in the construction industry. At Lauren Concrete we are excited to be partnering with Giatec to bring you the latest innovative technology to help you save time and obtain important data on-the-go. By purchasing SmartRock Plus sensors through Lauren Concrete, we provide pre-calibration for specified mixes at no additional cost.
