Nondestructive Bridge Deck Testing with Air-Coupled Impact-Echo and Infrared Thermography

Abstract: Two different nondestructive test (NDT) methods, air-coupled impact-echo (IE) and infrared (IR) thermography are evaluated on a full-scale simulated reinforced concrete bridge deck containing simulated delamination and cracking defects. The IE data are presented as twodimensional frequency maps and spectral B-scan lines. The IR data are presented as temperature maps on the concrete surface. The lateral boundaries of the detected delaminations are also indicated in the images. The results obtained from each of … Show more

“…The presence of vertical cracks leads to a reduced modulus of elasticity of concrete, which can be captured using the ultrasonic surface wave method [67]. Delamination can be detected using impact echo [68,69], pulse echo [70]; and infrared thermography tests [71,72]. Table 3 The use of simple NDE tools such as chain drag and hammer sounding is the predominant practice of condition assessment of concrete bridge decks.…”

“…A aplicação da termografia infravermelha pode ser dividida em duas categorias: ativa e passiva, dependendo dos recursos empregados de calor (Kee et al, 2012;Rehman et al, 2016). A termografia passiva não requer fontes de estimulação externa (Oh et al, 2013), usa a energia solar e a temperatura ambiente como principais recursos de aquecimento, e é a técnica utilizada para inspeção de pontes (Kee et al, 2012;Vaghefi et al, 2012;Alfredo-Cruz et al, 2015), bem como para outras estruturas e outros campos (Buyukozturk, 1998;Lahiri et al, 2012;Barreira;Almeida;Delgado, 2016;Fox;Goodhew;Wilde, 2016;O'Grady;Lechowska;Harte, 2016).…”

Em contraste, a termografia ativa requer fontes externas de estimulação de calor (Kee et al, 2012;Rehman et al, 2016), pode até ser sub-dividida de acordo com a natureza da estimulação como: Pulsed, Lock-in, Pulsed-Phase, entre outros (Maldague, 2001). A aplicação das técnicas de termografia ativa estão relacionadas com a detecção de defeitos em metais, monitoramento de processos industriais, entre outros (Meola et al, 2002;Montanini, 2010;Yuanlin et al, 2015;Zhao et al, 2017).…”

“…Originally developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in the 1980s [12], the impact-echo technique is traditionally employed by striking the surface and listening to the response using piezoelectric surface sensors [13]. More recently, air-coupled impact-echo testing has received attention because the absence of surface sensors can potentially increase the speed of data collection [14][15][16][17][18][19]. Use of parabolic reflectors further enhances the air-coupled technique by gathering more of the emitted acoustic signal [20].…”
