Abstract

Structural deterioration of reinforced and prestressed concrete is becoming more common and its scale and extent is likely to increase substantially in the next decade. The assessment of structures containing concrete and/or reinforcement with developing deterioration for structural reliability or maintenance management purposes will require a major effect within the industry.

A range of techniques are generally required when deciding how to deal with such structures. Laboratory testing of concrete samples and site monitoring of detailed areas of elements or the structure as a whole are generally necessary so that the full picture can be recognised. The paper describes the roles and inter-relationship of an IBM PC micro and a VAX 11/780 main frame which are used in combination to store, process, manage and analyse data arising from investigations into structural deterioration.

Although developed for specific specialist consulting applications the techniques are directly applicable to routine maintenance procedures for any type of structure.
