Problem – Sudden failures of civil infrastructure systems

Approaches to the problem –

In addition to the I-35W bridge, there are approximately 75,000 other U.S. bridges also rated as “structurally deficient” in 2007.Structurally deficient: “The structure is deemed to have

met minimum tolerable limits to be left in place as it is.”

Are these 75,000 structurally deficient bridges safe? How do we know?

We need reliable (inspection results are creditable), efficient (inspection can be accomplished in time) condition assessment technologies for this challenging problem.

Introduction:

Method and Features :

Current distant NDT methods provide only the surface profile of structures, while some near-field NDT methods can conduct in-depth inspection of structures.

Significant impacts – EX: I-35 Highway Bridge Collapse, Minneapolis, MN (6:05pm, Wed., Aug. 1, 2007) :

Condition assessment of structures :
