description | In this work the Non-Destructive Techniques of Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV), Infrared Thermography and Rebound Hammer, used in concrete bridge elements to determine their applicability in situ, were evaluated. The study was conducted in two phases: the design and development of a concrete bridge representative elements, and their non-destructive testing application.The UPV technique showed a great capacity to assess the concrete matrix uniformity and quality, with low sensitivity to identify the reinforcements’damages. The infrared thermography allowed to identify delaminations located at depths up to 50% of the evaluated slab thickness. With the rebound hammer results, the concrete slabs compressive strength was estimated, but their readings were affected by the coarse aggregate presence. |

Se evaluaron las técnicas no destructivas de Velocidad de Pulso Ultrasónico (VPU), termografía infrarroja y martillo de rebote para su aplicación en elementos de puentes de concreto y para determinar su posible aplicación in situ. El estudio se desarrolló en dos etapas: diseño y elaboración de los elementos representativos de un puente de concreto y aplicación de los ensayos no destructivos sobre estos. La técnica de VPU mostró gran capacidad para evaluar la homogeneidad y calidad de la matriz de concreto, con baja sensibilidad para identificar los daños en los refuerzos. La termografía infrarroja permitió la identificación de delaminaciones ubicadas a profundidades de hasta el 50% del espesor de la losa evaluada. Con los resultados del martillo de rebote se estimó la resistencia a la compresión del concreto de las losas, cuyas lecturas obtenidas fueron afectadas por la presencia de agregado grueso.
