Abstract:

This techbrief  highlights the research conducted to investigate the current use of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) data to assess the condition of bridge and tunnel elements. However, based on interviews with personnel in Lead Adopter States and after consultation with engineers at FHWA, the research team focused on bridges and bridge decks.
