CAPO & Pull-Out Tests
In-situ concrete strength & anchor capacity
Investigation Mandate
CAPO Test measures in-situ compressive strength of concrete on existing structures with minimal damage. Pull-Out Test verifies anchor bolt and post-installed rebar capacity for retrofitting work.
What We Deliver On Site
Field & Laboratory Methodology
CAPO: Drill 18mm hole → insert expansion ring → cut groove → apply pull-out force → measure peak force → correlate with cube strength. Anchor Pull-out: Calibrated hydraulic ram → applied to anchor → load-displacement recorded → ultimate failure load determined.
