Review of Nondestructive Evaluation Methods Applicable to Construction Materials and Structures
Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods for evaluating in situ construction materials and for condition assessment of building components and systems were identified and are described. The report is intended to help inspectors and those involved in condition assessment choose appropriate NDE methods for specific building materials, components, and systems. Important properties of building materials along with important performance requirements for building components are listed, and appropriate NDE methods for determining these properties are recommended. In many cases the advantages and limitations of the NDE methods are presented. In a related aspect of the study, current Navy practices relative to the use of NDE methods in the construction and service cycle of buildings and other structures were reviewed. Navy Guide Specifications were examined for required tests, both NDE and destructive, of in situ building materials and components.
