Abstract:

This article presents a concise review of modern non-destructive testing (NDT) methods that allow the detection, tracking, and measurement of cracks in reinforced concrete structures. Over the past decades, the range of solutions available on the market has increased. This provides excel- lent opportunities when choosing and designing systems for diagnosing and continuously monitor- ing structures. Cracking affects the mechanical properties, durability, and serviceability of a struc- ture or its elements. Therefore, there is a need to develop methods that would allow the determina- tion of the moment of a destructive process’s formation, i.e., a crack’s appearance. At the same time, it is crucial to be able to track the development of cracks for the entire structure, not just selected locations. This work also presents the concept of combining selected NDT methods and creating a system for the continuous monitoring of structural integrity and predicting changes in the durabil- ity of existing and future buildings.
