Which cement testing instruments are commonly
used during/ before construction?

• There are many factors that experts need to
  address aptly before and during any construction
  project. The moisture content is one of such
  factors. Moisture plays a significant role in
  structuring rock-solid construction. It is
  necessary to test and check the level of wetness
  in right way before commencing the construction
  project. Many cement testing instruments have
  been introduced for such job and most engineers
  are using them to test the moisture level in the
  cement.

• However, just a single test is not enough to
  determine all the qualities and aspects of
  moisture and cement thus, the moisture tester
  also makes an attempt to evaluate the same with
  different methods and techniques. Below are few
  techniques and machine tools used for testing
  quality of a concrete and the moisture in the
  cement

Moisture meter

• Such meters are greatly known for their testing
  ability. Moisture meter is used for determining
  humidity level in the concrete or gypsum floor
  surface. Engineers use this specialized tool to
  calculate whether or not the surface is ready for
  starting further construction work.

5
Resistance meter technique

• In this method, experts pass the direct electric
  current through the two metal pins into the
  surface. To determine the moisture level, testers
  check the by reviewing the amount of resistance
  between the two pins.

Flow table test

• Flow table test reviews the consistency of the
  cement mixture. The manufacturing companies offer
  both manual and electronic flow table devices on
  request.

Gillmore needle device

• This equipment is used to test the settling time
  of mortar that is prepared from hydraulic,
  masonry, and Portland cement.
• These are few cement testing instruments used by
  professionals to determine moisture level and
  cement consistency. You can avail them from
  leading makers of cement testers and tools across
  the world. Most of the moisture testing
  professionals know how to use the equipments and
  testing the concrete floors and slabs with
  proficiency.
