The Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) apparatus is a non-destructive testing (NDT) instrument used to assess the quality and uniformity of concrete. It works by sending an ultrasonic pulse through the concrete and measuring the time taken for the pulse to travel between transducers. The velocity of the pulse helps in determining concrete quality, presence of cracks, voids, honeycombing, and overall homogeneity. UPV testing is widely used in construction, civil engineering, and material testing laboratories.
