Abstract

Mathematical basis of interpretation of data from nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods in condition assessment of structures is presented. In structural inspection with NDE methods, NDE data are not directly used for the condition assessment. Instead, NDE data must be interpreted as condition of inspected element. Correct assessments of conditions depend on many factors such as the inaccuracy and the variability in NDE measurements and the uncertainty in correlation between attributes (what is measured) and conditions (what is sought in the inspection). A full description of the performance of NDE methods considers the relation of test data to conditions of elements. The quality of the test itself is important, but equally important is the interpretation that occurs after the test. The effects of variability in test data and uncertainty in correlations of attributes and conditions are presented in three examples of field testing methods.

비파괴 시험을 이용한 RC 구조물의 진단에 있어서 비파괴 측정값의 적절한 해석을 통해서만 현 구조물의 상태진단이 가능하다. 보다 정확한 구조물의 상태진단은 비파괴 시험의 정밀성, 변이성 등과 같은 여러 가지 요소에 의하여 좌우된다. 특히 비파괴 시험을 이용한 측정값과 구조물의 상태에 있어서의 불확실성은 정밀한 상태진단에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 논문은 현재 사용이 증가되고 있는 비파괴 장비의 올바른 선택과 정확한 구조물의 진단을 위하여, 비파괴 측정값의 확률적 해석법의 기초를 제공하고 있다.
