TITLE:
Confocal-metallographic microscope
DESCRIPTION:
A confocal metallographic microscope assesses pores in concrete, crucial for freeze-thaw and salt resistance. Using the line microscopic analysis method from SIST EN 480-11, it predicts concrete resilience shortly after placement (around 7-10 days). Proper surface preparation is vital for accurate results, involving wet sanding, polishing, and contrasting cement paste and air voids. The microscope, with (100+10)x magnification, records the total analysis path length (Ts), passages through air voids (Ta), and categorizes voids by size, aiding in precise assessment.
