[0022] Further, the gas pipeline 6 is connected to the pressurizing pump 3 by a rubber plug to prevent gas leakage, one end of the gas pipeline 6 is provided with a pressure valve 4 to adjust the pressure value, and one end of the gas pipeline 6 is provided with a pressure gauge 16 to display the real-time pressure value.
[0023] Further, the gas pipeline 6 is connected to the communicating water tank 7 by a rubber plug to prevent gas leakage during pressure transmission, and the gas pipeline 6 is made of hard material to prevent deformation of the gas pipeline 6 under pressure.
[0024] Further, a pad plate 8 is placed at one end of the communicating water tank 7 to prevent gas from entering the water and causing air pressure loss.
[0025] Further, an iron wire mesh 9 is welded inside one end of the communicating water tank 7 to place a test sample 10, so that the bottom of the test sample 10 is in full contact with water, and the communicating water tank 7 can be filled with water. Waterproof material is applied to both sides of the test sample 10 to prevent water leakage.
[0026] Further, buckles 11 are provided on both sides of the test sample 10 to prevent the test sample 10 from moving under pressure.
[0027] Further, a camera 12 is provided at the top of the test sample 10 to take pictures of the surface cracks of the test sample 10.
[0028] Further, the signal connection line 13 transmits the picture taken by the camera 12 to the detector host 14, and the detector host 14 is provided with a distance measuring and photographing function, and the crack width of the sample 10 is measured by the detector host 14.
[0029] In the implementation, the following steps are performed:
