Abstract:Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods show promise for obtaining detailed data on steel corrosion and concrete deterioration in bridges without requiring core samples. MDOT evaluated three of these methods by using them on laboratory specimens and existing structures in the field. All three were successful and will provide MDOT with valuable information for making maintenance and repair decisions.
