Experimental study of attenuation coefficient of ultrasonic waves in concrete and plaster
This study has been dedicated to the determination and comparison of ultrasound attenuation coefficient in two kinds of frequently used masonry, namely concrete and plaster. The results of this investigation can be mainly applied for optimum acoustical designing of buildings which are exposed to high-power ultrasonic waves. Another expected benefit of this investigation is determining the possibility of using ultrasonic wave emissions for finding people who are buried under ruined building materials due to an earthquake. In this paper, the attenuation coefficient of 19.7 kHz ultrasonic waves are presented for nine different concrete specimens and three different plaster specimens. For this purpose, the amplitude of vibration speed of the back and frontal surfaces of the specimens were measured by a non-contact laser sensor while the front surface was actuated by a 200-W ultrasonic transducer. The variables of concrete were weight proportion between water and cement, weight proportion between course aggregate and fine aggregate, weight proportion of cement replaced with micro-silica, and the type of cement. The variable for plaster pieces was the weight proportion of water and plaster.
