Concrete Condition Risk Assessment and In-Situ Load Testing Examples

 

When do you need to use In-Situ load testing?

You’ve done the initial field investigation and are now have the next level of questions that need to be asked. The first step is to do a structural review and determine the effect of the deterioration on load carrying capacity and the urgency of the repairs. Once that step is addressed then the feasibility of the repairs or the repair alternatives need to be determined and analyzed, risks need to be identified, and costs determined. Sometimes at this point, depending on the age of the structure, it may not be possible to determine that calculation which is when in-situ load testing comes into play. This video reviews risk assessment cases and their outcomes.
