Description: Technical Note
From Purpose of Work: Research Statements of Need (SONs), 2008-N-9, were submitted by the Corps Research Area Review Group (RARG) to the Navigation Systems Research Program. In response to this SONs, a work unit (WU) was established to develop procedures and specifications to assess post-tensioned anchorage capacity deterioration by means of microcrack detection using nondestructive testing/nondestructive evaluation (NDT/NDE) types of field techniques. The purpose of this research is to develop a field inspection capability for the purpose of detecting and quantifying slowly propagating microcracks in trunnion anchor rods.
