| Summary: | Deterioration, specifically corrosion, of transportation infrastructure in the United States is leading to substantial problems, which must be addressed. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has been proven effective by many researchers and is gaining in popularity as a method of assessing the conditions of reinforced concrete. Ground penetrating radar offers a high-speed and accurate form of assessment for transportation infrastructure. The speed and accuracy of GPR can save
significant sums of money through early identification and mitigation of damaged infrastructure and improve safety for inspection crews and commuters by limiting hazardous road closers and providing greater inspection coverage of bridges. |
