STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING OF A CONCRETE STRUCTURESIN GAUTAM BUDDHA UNIVERSITY
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
A reinforced concrete structure constructs a combination of concrete and steel bars. Structures are constructed by using different grade of concrete and steel bars. Its durability depends on various factors viz. workability, watercement ratio, cover distance, temperature etc. Strength of concrete structures against these adverse conditions is goes to reducing with passage of time. When these factors increase which causing corrosion of reinforcement, spalling of concrete and reduce the durability of the structures. This phenomenon starts in any concrete structures so vigilant periodic health monitoring approach becomes mandatory. The suitable methods adopted will depend on the observed degree of deterioration. This paper describes an experimental study to diagnose degree of corrosion and status of concrete on reinforced concrete water tank and parapet wall in Gautam Buddha University by using Half-Cell Potentiometer and Portable Ultrasound Non-destructive Digital Indicator Tester (PUNDIT).
