Review of NDT methods in the assessment of concrete and masonry structures
D. M. McCann,Michael Forde +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the state of the art of non-destructive testing (NDT) methods as applied to the civil engineering industry in the Millennium Year, 2000 is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing Damage of Reinforced Concrete Beam using b -value Analysis of Acoustic Emission Signals
TL;DR: In this paper, a b-value analysis was carried out on data recorded during a laboratory test on a reinforced concrete beam designed as representative of a bridge beam, and the results showed a good agreement with the development of the fracture process of the concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of infrared thermography to the non-destructive testing of concrete and masonry bridges
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that even with the low ambient temperatures experienced in Europe it is possible to use infrared thermography to identify correctly known areas of delamination in a concrete bridge structure and also to investigate the internal structure of a masonry bridge.
Journal ArticleDOI
The conduction of electricity through concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between mix proportions, electrical properties of the constituents of concrete and the over-all electrical resistivity for concrete and proposed an electrical model for conduction of electricity through the heterogeneous medium of concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical modelling of ground borne vibrations from high speed rail lines on embankments
TL;DR: In this article, a three dimensional numerical model is presented capable of modelling the propagation and transmission of ground vibration in the vicinity of high speed railways, which is used to investigate the effect of embankment constituent material on ground borne vibration levels at various distances from the track.
