Magnetic Flux-Based Nondestructive Evaluation Technologies for Assessing Corrosion Damage in External and Internal Post-Tensioned Tendons: Development Efforts and Evaluation Results

Publication Information

Publication Type:
Technical Report
Publication Number:
FHWA-HRT-23-005
Abstract:

This report documents research efforts to develop and validate three types of magnetic flux-based nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technologies for external and internal post-tensioned (PT) tendons.


This study provides bridge program personnel from Federal, State, and local transportation departments with information on the advantages and limitations of magnetic-based NDE technologies. Bridge design engineers, specification writers, consultants, and manufacturers/suppliers of PT tendon-related systems, products, and materials may find this report to be of interest.
