Abstract
Regular in-situ inspection of structures is required for accessing the condition of concrete. In concrete, several unpredicted and uncontrollable factors affect the expected performance and life cycle of the structures. Non-destructive testing can be applied to both new and old structure to monitor infrastructures. This test is better known to assess and evaluate the condition of concrete. In this investigation, the non-destructive testing and destructive testing were used to estimate the strength of concrete cubes of M25 subjected to 28days of curing with acid at varying PH values (1.5, 2.5 and 3.5) and water. The test was used to determine the strength of the cubes. From the result he concluded that cubes cured with water had better strength throughout the test and gradual deterioration was observed in the cube specimen subjected to acid.
