Drilling of Fibre Reinforced Plastics (FRPs) Materials: A Literature Survey
Abstract: The use of polymer composite materials has increased rapidly over the last decade and the numbers of papers for the machining of these materials has also increased. The aim of this paper is to present a literature survey on the resins, properties, the superiority of the hole produced in drilling of the fibre reinforced plastics (FRPs), different techniques used to detect the defects in composite structures that may be caused …

Concrete Quality Evaluation Using Non-destructive Test
Abstract: This paper analyses the non-destructive testing (NDT) measurements used to assess on site strength and condition of reinforced concrete. To ascertain the residual strength of concrete, extent of corrosion, it is imperative to assess the health of the RC structural members of a building using State-of-the-art non-destructive testing (NDT). NDT of concrete structure is carried out in order to assess the health of structure without impairment of its desirable properties. …

Assessment of M30 Concrete Compressive Strength Using Digital Rebound Hammer and Destructive Testing
Abstract: Abstract The assessment of in-situ concrete strength using non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques hasbecome increasingly important for quality assurance, structural evaluation, and conditionassessment of concrete infrastructure. Among the available NDT methods, the digital reboundhammer offers a rapid, economical, and non-destructive means of estimating concretecompressive strength. This study experimentally investigates the correlation between reboundnumbers obtained from a digital rebound hammer and the compressive strength of M30 gradeconcrete determined using a Compression Testing …

Studies on non-destructive inspection of steel wire ropes
Abstract: Non-destructive tests (NDT) of steel wire ropes under services are experienced to estimate remnant life with reference to new and similar components tested under similar conditions. Inspection by magnetic defect-stray fields’ to gamma radiography for imaging defects in addition, for suspended bridges have been methods of tests to configure defect morphologies in wires. This is beyond standard periodic inspections accounted from constrains of pre broken wires, multi-axial deformation, frictional wear, …

Structural Audit and Health Assessment of RCC Structure: A Case Study
Abstract: In India, where rapid urbanization and seismic risks are prevalent, ensuring the safety and longevity ofstructures is paramount. Structural audits and health assessments of reinforced concrete cement(R.C.C.) buildings are mandated by municipal authorities to evaluate their integrity. The objective is toextend the lifespan of structures while mitigating risks to human life and neighboring buildings. Non destructive testing (NDT) methods, including the rebound hammer test and ultrasonic pulse velocitytest, are widely …
