The Use of Non-Destructive Methods of Control in the Examination of Existing Ferro-Concrete Buildings and Facilities

Abstract

Currently thanks to the reconstruction it is possible to modernize most of the technically and morally obsolete buildings. However, it is worth noting that in the reconstruction of existing buildings and structures, an important stage is the determination of the parameters of the reinforcement and concrete (the thickness of the protective layer, the location of the reinforcement, the diameter, etc.). In order to perform verification calculations and subsequently determine where and how to strengthen it is necessary to conduct whether they are needed. This is especially important, as in the reconstruction of buildings and structures (associated with the construction of new floors), and when the object is replaced by a functional purpose.
