METHODS AND DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUES USED TO ANALYSE THE TECHNICAL STATE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents the problems concerning the principles of developing expertise and performing tests on reinforced concrete structures. The situations that justify the need to provide expertise, the subject of which are constructions made of reinforced concrete, are described. A layout of the content of expertise that is usually adopted in practice has been included and commented on. The basic principles that should be followed when diagnosing the structures in question are provided. The available diagnostic methods and techniques, including non-destructive and semi non-destructive ones, are reviewed. This review is enriched with classifications that facilitate the selection of specific methods
