Besides the traditional use for interpretation of results of the impact-echo method, the Echolyst software incorporates innovative techniques to create 2-dimensional (2-D) and 3-dimensional (3-D) visual representations of measurements obtained from a grid test points.

The essence of Echolyst is the technique for using the amplitudes of the different frequency components obtained at the grid points to construct a volumetric model of the test region from which locations of reflecting interfaces can be presented as images.

Impact-Echo test Software.

• Measure the thickness of pavements, asphalt overlays, plate-like concrete elements like slabs or walls, etc.
• Detect the presence and depth of voids and honeycombing
• Detect voids below slabs-on-ground
• Evaluate the quality of grout injection in post-tensioning cable ducts or joints for precast elements
• Integrity of a membrane below an asphalt overlay protecting structural concrete
• Delamination surveys of bridge decks, piers, cooling towers, chimneystacks, etc.
• Detect debonding of overlays and patches
• Detect ASR damage and freezing-and-thawing damage
• Measure the depth of surface-opening cracks
• Estimate early-age strength development (with proper correlation)

Impact-Echo test Software.
