Abstract
For the quality assurance of concrete infrastructure, nondestructive testing (NDT) can provide a faster and less invasive alternative to coring. The implementation of NDT tools can enable the adoption of concrete performance-based specifications, allowing contractors greater flexibility while providing higher reliability, longer service lives, and lower costs for concrete infrastructure. Various NDT tools are investigated to determine their abilities and limitations. Survey results have provided valuable information on the usage of NDT tools by various agencies, and preliminary test results have demonstrated the capabilities of a commercially available ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) device.
