JSTE_V6_N1_RP4 Praveen Kumar Yadav Yogita Kushwaha Journal on Structural Engineering 2320 - 2343 6 1 28 32 EMI, Piezoelectric Sensor, Admittance Signature Durability is one of the key parameters of reinforced concrete structure which gives the idea to withstand the structure against load, pressure, and atmospheric conditions. There are several factors that effect the durability which are permeability, sulphate attack, Chloride, etc. and in this series, corrosion of reinforced concrete is also one of the most important factors that may cause damage of reinforced concrete structure. Due to the development of non-destructive technology, it becomes very easy for the condition assessment of concrete structures. This paper presents a test to perform the durability assessment in the RCC beam with electro mechanical impedance method by using piezoelectric material. In this test, pzt is bonded to the surface of beam and the pzt –structure interaction is captured in the form of admittance signature consisting of conductance and susceptance extracted to detect the level of damage. The experimental results show that the admittance signature is very effective in detecting the durability of concrete structure. March - May 2017 Copyright © 2017 i-manager publications.
