Abstract: An experimental program was conducted to study the effect of chloride contamination of portland cement concrete (PCC) on its complex permittivity over low radio frequencies (RF) range (0.1–40.1 MHz). Two types of aggregate ...

Abstract: This paper presents a nondestructive evaluation method to characterize portland cement concrete (PCC) based on its dielectric properties. The work reported is part of an ongoing study to develop a nondestructive evaluation ...

Abstract: The use of ground-penetrating radar as a nondestructive investigative technique has gained increasing acceptance both in the United States and in Europe for assessing the structural integrity of concrete structures. However, ...
