Crack Detection

Concrete materials are meant for supporting structures, building foundations and they act as several load-bearing structures. Over time, due to environmental conditions, and based on the constituent materials used, concrete materials are subjected to a great degree of distress. Corrosion of the reinforcement bars due to chemical influences, uneven base, earthquake, drying shrinkages, and alkali-aggregate reactions are some of the reasons for concrete distress.
