Remote Inspection and Monitoring of Civil Engineering Structures Based on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Vehicles (UAVs). Regarding the remote inspection, dedicated computer-vision methodologies are presented for the automatic detection of cracks and exposed steel rebars on reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Two distinct image processing techniques are used: one based on heuristic features and other

Shake Table Testing Techniques: Current Challenges and New Trendsnd other civil engineering structures, including non-structural elements, and also for the seismic qualification of electromechanical equipment. Due to physical constraints, testing of real scale models is usually restricted to small sized structures. For larger structures, reduced scale models are

Experimental Research and Development on Blast Resistant Structuresew decades, wars, terrorist attacks and accidental explosions, have raised up the need to consider blast loads in the construction of relevant public or private infrastructures. The successful design of blast resistant structures requires a deep understanding of the effects of explosions on structur

Load Tests on Bridgesnologies. Best practices for the planning, preparation and execution of load tests are presented. The discussion is supported by practical applications in which the authors have been involved during the last 20 years. Selected case studies are used to illustrate the role of load tests during commiss

An Automated Tool for Long-Term Structural Health Monitoring Based on Vibration Testsving large structures such as viaducts, bridges, tall buildings, towers, and old historical buildings. Typically, an SHM process needs to be based on a trustful strategy for detecting structural novelties or abnormal behaviors. Usually, such an approach is complemented with human inspection and stru

Testing for New Requirements for Building Coatings perform several functions, starting with the protection of the substrates and, therefore, durability of the coated building elements. With the increased concern on ecological performance, energy conservation and economic efficiency, the durability of the coatings themselves and several innovative r
