Abstract

For bridge or NPP inspections, the application of different NDT-methods is indispensable to ensure the integrity of concrete components. Therefore, different NDT-methods have been commercialized and are now applied for the structural assessment on site to serve as valuable tools in the process of ensuring safety and durability. In this presentation, equipment developments serving to increase the performance will be introduced. Furthermore, new approaches adapted on the specifics of inspecting concrete such as applying procedures or using modeling and simulation will be presented. Additionally, an overview of the German standard DIN 4871 “Non-destructive testing - Qualification of NDT personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT-CE)” will be given. All these developments take into account the growing importance of NDT-CE methods for concrete inspections and represent relevant measures to ensure the reliability and to reduce the measurement uncertainty of the information gained from NDT.
