Presenting the Results<br />

The tests are to be numbe red fo r each element tested, e. g. <strong>for</strong> each<br />

column. So far as columns are co ncerned Test No I sho uld be th e<br />

one conducted lowest down the co lumn with the numbers all ocated<br />

in ascending order moving up each co lumn.<br />

If, fo r examp le, measuring the surface cover, the depth of carbonisatlon<br />

and the chloride content have all bee n conductedsimultaneously,<br />

then the results should be prese nted in a table in such a way<br />

that al l the results from each particular test site can be co mpared.<br />

The assumed cement content should be given in kg/m3 of concrete.<br />

The co nversion facto r <strong>for</strong> the chl oride content of co ncrete by<br />

weight to the chloride content of ce ment by weight shoul d also be<br />

indicated. In the foll owing calculation the specific weight of the<br />

concrete is taken as 23 00 kg/m3<br />
