Is there an ASTM Standard for concrete testing by thermal methods?
ASTM D7949-25 is classified as the Standard Test Methods for Integrity Testing of Concrete Deep Foundations by Thermal Methods. This standard is described as temperature measurements taken from a thermal probe lowered into access ducts in the deep foundation element, or from embedded thermal sensors distributed along the length, or from embedded fiber optic cables can indicate the homogeneity and integrity of concrete both inside and outside the reinforcing cage, as well as placement of the cage relative to the center of the curing concrete.
