Original Abstract

Concrete structures ageing, cracks, pores and delamination, can rule process of nuclear power stations lifetime protraction. Inspections of concrete shielding are necessary from the point of view of possible structure integrity degradation during its working life. Non-destructive method application is usually difficult for limited access to concrete shielding. The paper deals with study of use possibility of Impact-echo method for the given configuration of excited impulse and response sensor. Measurement results showed that the information about concrete structure quality does not obtain from response signal for the given configuration.
