Abstract
This paper contains results of visualisations of concrete samples, which are processed with plain water jets in a pressure range of up to 60 MPa. The visualisations include microscopic observation, mercury penetration, sieve analysis and conventional measurements (cut width, mass removal). The results are interpreted statistically and give an idea on the behaviour of cement paste and concrete, respectively, in case of water jet attack.
