| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Deterioration of civil infrastructure is getting one of the most serious problems, recently. A diagonal member of a steel truss bridge was cut off due to the corrosion in the 2000s. The truss member was embedded in the reinforced concrete floor systems. The structural detail was not appropriate in terms of water drain. This study aims at developing nondestructive technique that detects the corrosion. Among nondestructive methods, thermography and ultrasonic test were applied. Detachment and water puddle in the interface between concrete floor and steel diagonal member was detected by the thermography. Temperature rate of the interface decreased more slowly, when water exists in the interface. Ultrasonic test was also applied to detect the detachment and thickness reduction by the corrosion. Some ultrasonic techniques such as SV (vertical shear) wave, SH (horizontal shear) wave, and Rayleigh (surface) wave methods. SV wave showed good detection ability among those methods.
