Abstract
The objective of the proposed research project is to develop a nondestructive test technique based on stress wave for quantitative evaluation of the repairing status of concrete. Concrete structures frequently exist various types of cracks due to an inferior environment and excessive loading. There are several crack repairing technique used in concrete construction. Epoxy-injection is popular maintenance method in crack repairing of the damaged concrete structure. In this paper, a technique based on the stress wave was used to evaluate the repair quality of concrete crack. Numerical simulation is also under research and results show that the stress wave propagation is capable of identifying the infill of epoxy-injection in the crack of repaired structures. The new technique under development has a high potential for evaluation of the quality of the repaired cracks.
