Soniscope Survey, Pad 39-A, Cape Kennedy, Florida
Abstract
Soniscope tests were conducted on concrete of pad 39-A at Cape Kennedy, Florida, to determine whether cracks present in the concrete were caused by placement of inferior quality concrete or by stresses imposed on normally good concrete. Compressive strength and pulse velocity tests were also conducted on 6- by 12-in. concrete cylinders made from a mixture comparable to that used in pad 39-A to aid in determining the quality of the concrete. The tests revealed that the concrete is of generally good to excellent quality and that the cracking was caused by stresses of an undetermined nature.
