Diagnostics of constructions
FAST-0I3Acad. year: 2020/2021
The task of construction diagnostics by carrying out a building-technical survey within maintenance, repair and reconstruction of structures. Ecological demands of building materials recycling. General metodology of diagnostic procedures, flow diagram of structure survey. Application of destructive and non-destructive testing methods by surveys, non-destructive tests made more accurate. Following up deformations and cracks in constructions, fatigue and corrosion of material. Evaluation of results with statistic methods. Methods of long-time structure controlling.
Seminary paper concerns the proposal of detailed progress of structure-technical survey of the construction. Laboratory practice with individual tasks.
