Non-Destructive Methods of Measuring Modulus of Elasticity of Building Materials and Reproducibility and Interpretation of their Results

This paper deals with the comparison of non-destructive methods of measuring modulus of elasticity by ultrasonic pulse velocity method and impact resonance method. Main research is focused on scattering of measured data, where by different volunteers were used the methods mentioned above on same test sample. This paper does not deal with the conversion relationships between individual methods, but it outlines the suitability of the chosen method in participation with the nature of samples, the difficulty of measurement and the expected reproducibility and interpretability of the measured data.
