146 a p p e N D I x N Introduction This appendix summarizes the field evaluations of the non- destructive testing (NDT) technique known as ultrasonic tomography (UST). The tests were performed within the framework of the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Renewal Project R06G. The objectives of this project have been listed in the Executive Summary of the main report. Thirty specimens with simulated defects were tested before the UST equipment was used in the field. Table N.1 summarizes those tests. Following are evaluation summaries of the test sites located at Eisenhower Memorial Tunnel near Dillon, Colorado; Hanging Lake Tunnel near Glenwood Springs, Colorado; Chesapeake Channel Tunnel near Norfolk, Virginia; Wash- burn Tunnel in Houston, Texas; continuously reinforced con- crete pavement on I-20 in Fort Worth, Texas; and bonded concrete overlays at the George Bush International Airport in Houston, Texas (Figures N.1âN.56).
