- Description:
- Non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques have been used for a number of years to provide quality control of construction procedures for drilled shafts and driven concrete piles. In particular sonic echo and impulse response methods have been used extensively to check lengths and continuity of newly-installed foundations. In recent years, the...
