Project description

This project will study non-destructive testing (NDT) methods to evaluate their accuracy and dependability in assessing the actual condition of bridges decks and reliably detecting anomalies. Recommended processes and guidelines for implementing an NDT-based measure into the state’s bridge asset management program will be developed. This research project is focused on comparing NDT results to actual bridge deck conditions and using the findings to incorporate NDT into the asset management program.
