Measurement of dielectric constant and loss tangent of concrete using LCR meter/ Mohd Rozaiman Razali

Moisture content of concrete can be a quality factor reference in determining the strength of a structure. Moisture content too, plays an important role in contribution of electrical properties of insulating materials such as concrete. Thus, we are developing simple measurement technique using low frequency device (LCR meter) to obtain the quality of concrete used in a structure. The objective of this project is to offer an on-site assistant option especially for the civil engineer to determine the quality of concrete used by measuring its electrical property.
