Durability, strength, and viability of any structure are crucial before occupying it for any use. Any structure, be it new or an old one (which is open for re-occupancy) can be assessed if required. Though it is not a prerequisite to have it done for the existing owner or a prospective owner. However, it is always advisable to have it done in order to learn and evaluate longevity, resistance, and stability. Though the common method, which is used, is to assess the quality by collecting a specimen of the structure while it is under construction, the result of the specimen can differ from an erected structure. For that, Non-Destructive Testing methods are the most reliable. They not only give the true picture of the tenability of the concrete structure but also elaborate on factors like hardness of the concrete, resistance, rebound capacity, and a structure’s suitability for any intended use. How will Non-Destructive Testing help? Non-Destructive Testing does not add or lessen the weigh...

There are numerous   non-destructive testin g (NDT) methods. Technicians from the non-destructive testing lab can analyze objects to know about the flaws. And discontinuities prior, during, and after manufacturing or assembly of a structure. Imperfections that are known early can be instantly eased and occasionally spotted. Thus, it saves the asset from total replacement. However, when flaws are caused, recognition can be difficult. If there is any crack, the trickiest part may be classifying the initial source of the fault. Perfect NDT Methods to Detect Advancing Defects Visual Testing There are numerous distinctive methods of non-destructive testing. However, not all are suitable for spotting developed defects. Visual testing is an affordable method that most non destructive testing lab  and technicians can implement. However, visual testing particularly relies on the naked eye of the technician performing the inspection. So acquiring perfect data might be a tough task. Vis...
