Non-desrtuctive test on distressed reinforced concrete structures

The concrete characterization and properties of reinforced concrete members subjected to reinforcement corrosion was studied using several non-destructive tests and in-situ tests. A few structures suffered corrosion problem were selected for the study. This project presents some findings on the use...
