Using advanced NDT for historic buildings: Towards an integrated multidisciplinary health assessment strategy
نویسنده
چکیده
This study aims to enhance the body of knowledge available in relation to the mechanical performance of historical structures and the assessment of the expected service life of such structures. The reliability of non-destructive techniques (NDT) is examined, in particular in connection with the technique’s application to a historic Ottoman building located in Urla, Izmir, Turkey. NDT techniques are effective in the identification of such defects as cavities and water ingress hidden within a structure, in addition to providing information on material properties. This research is unique in utilizing NDT within a multidisciplinary assessment strategy to demonstrate its value within the field and will be of particular interest to structural engineers and architects. © 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS.
