Non Destructive Testing

The document discusses non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques used to evaluate structures without damaging them. Common NDT methods include rebound hammer testing to assess concrete strength, sounding to detect delamination, and ultrasonic pulse velocity testing. Additional techniques covered are impact-echo for defect detection, infrared thermography for honeycomb and corrosion evaluation, and elastic wave stress methods. NDT allows evaluation of material properties, defects, and reinforcement condition without harming the integrity of the structure.
