Original Abstract

The paper deals with the in-situ determination of the modulus of elasticity on the bridge elements using ultrasonic pulse method. This non-destructive test method was chosen for the measurement because of its undisputed advantages that allow the measurement of relatively thick layers of material. For the purpose of the elastic modulus verification the direct measurement was used, in which a pair of transducers (transmitter and receiver) were placed directly opposite to each other. The results of performed in-situ measurements as well as the results of verification tests performed in the laboratory are presented in the paper. The article also discusses the issue of evaluation and interpretation of the results obtained by in-situ measurements using non-destructive test method.
