Besides mobile NMR, laboratory devices such as the NMR core-analyzing tomograph are used. As their magnetic field is more homogeneous, they enable measurements with higher signal-to-noise ratios (SNR), but with limited sample sizes. The tomograph presented here (8.9 MHz) was constructed for a maximum sample diameter of 70 mm and length of up to 1 m. The resolution, the echo time (min. 50 µs), the SNR and the measurement type can be adjusted by means of exchangable coils. The tomograph enables measurements along the complete sensitive length, slice-selective and even 2- or 3-dimensional measurements. A movable sample lifting system thereby allows a precise positioning of the sample.

Depending on the specific application it can offer insights into properties like porosity and spatial saturation degree as well as pore structure. Moreover it enables the determination of moisture transport properties and the (re-)distribution of internal moisture into different reservoirs or chemical phases upon damage and curing. However, as yet most investigations were carried out using devices originally either designed for geophysical applications or the analysis of rather homogeneous small scale (< 10 mL) samples. This paper describes the capabilities of an NMR tomograph, which has been specifically optimized for the investigation of larger, heterogeneous building material samples (diameters of up to 72 mm, length of up to 700 mm) with a high flexibility due to interchangeable coils allowing for a high SNR and short echo times (50 - 80 m s).
