Abstract :
The building structure construction in a
period of last 25 years is become enlarge and become
more important in development of India and to built
infrastructure. Concrete structures construction taken
place very rapidly due to the shifting of rural
populations to urban areas is mainly due to urban biases
in terms of development and economic opportunities. It
has been observed in developing countries that urban
residents have a better standard of living. In this study
we focus on old structure which is constructed before,
need special attention for maintenance, repair
rehabilitation. The purpose of this Research to
understand the important of monitoring the condition of
old concrete building, durability and reliability of
concrete structures. Therefore, effective methods for
evaluating the dilapidated level are required to proposed
repair technique. This leads to use combined
development of several non destructive test methods.
Ultrasonic pulse velocity test over any concrete structure
reflects its conditions. Several physical and chemical
properties of concrete structures significantly influence
the density condition. Rebound hammer test provide
compressive strength. Cover meter test provide cover
details as well as reinforcements details and all this test
combine will determine the present condition of
reinforced concrete structures and by optimization and
analysis of all these tests jointly would be significant for
planning maintenances and replacement of old
buildings.
