Assessment of concrete strength in existing structures is a common engineering problem.
Several attempts in the literature showed the potential of ML methods for predicting concrete …

Non-destructive testing has many advantages, such as the ability to obtain a large number of
data without destroying existing structures. However, the reliability of the estimation …

With more emphasis on reusing and extending the life of structures, it often becomes
necessary to assess the capacity of existing concrete structures. One major component of …

The penetration depth is one of the major index parameters for indirect determination of the
unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of rock. That is, the weaker the rock, the deeper the …

This study presents a partially nondestructive testing (PDT) method, the innovative double-
shear test method (DSTM), to improve the accuracy of concrete strength tests in situ and …

The innovative arc pressure testing method (APTM) is adopted in this study to obtain the
strength of in situ concrete and reduce damage to the concrete structure. This method is …

The classical pull-off test indicates that the compressive strength of concrete increases with
its tensile strength. But it is difficult to obtain the effective data due to the loading eccentricity …

The strength of cast-in-place concrete is obtained using the innovative pendulum
hammering test method (PHTM) to reduce structural damage to concrete. A specially …

Assessment of concrete strength in existing structures is a common engineering problem.
Several attempts in the literature showed the potential of ML methods for predicting concrete …

Determination of the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of construction materials in the
laboratory is tedious and time-consuming. There have been many attempts to indirectly …
