... 82 C h a p t e r 9 The primary objective of this research was to identify NDT technologies that can effectively detect and characterize deterioration in bridge decks. The research activity had the following five specific objectives: • To identify and characterize NDT technologies for the rapid condition assessment of concrete bridge decks; • To validate the strengths and limitations of applicable NDT technologies from the perspectives of accuracy, precision, ease of use, speed, and cost; • To recommend test procedures and protocols for the most effective application of the promising technologies; and • To synthesize the information regarding the recommended technologies needed in an electronic repository for practitioners.
