Abstract
In this study, we have constructed a measuring system to investigate tensile stress of tendons, which is employed in bridges, by means of the magnetic non-destructive testing (NDT) method. For the twisted 7-strands tendon, we have used Wiedemann effect. An ac current was applied to the tendon and voltage induced from Search Coil on Tendon (SCT) under applying tensile stress was measured. The measuring system consists of tensile stress applying apparatus up to 2 GPa, and ac current supply to apply current to the tendon directly to magnetize the tendon. We have invested two kinds of tendon which were produced by different companies for testing with constructed measuring system. Voltage induced from SCT was decreased up to 1.5 GPa linearly and two kinds of tendon which were produced by different companies shows similar trends. Thus, Wiedemann effect was also applicable to measure tensile stress of tendon by means of magnetic NDT.
