摘要
The nondestructive impulse response test is commonly used in civil engineering for proving the integrity of concrete bored cast in place piles (drilled shafts). Engineers are less familiar with its extended application to the testing of other reinforced concrete structural elements such as floors, pavement slabs, bridge decks, fluid-retaining tanks and tall structures such as chimneystacks and silos. Since 1985 much of this application development has taken place in North America. This article reviews these developments, and uses case histories to illustrate application of the method to the investigation and evaluation of structures. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.
