Plain & Reinforced Concrete Structure Evaluation

12_Hammer Sounding_1

In existing concrete structures, understanding the structural configuration, current condition, and likely deterioration mechanisms is vital for a variety of work. Whether it is understanding the reinforcement configuration for an existing building in preparation for renovations or an in-depth investigation of deleterious reactions in concrete bridge pile caps, BDI provides the technology and engineering expertise to provide actionable, reliable data and results.

What Can We Do?

Our post-processing workflows transform complex datasets into actionable insights, technical reports, CAD-based feature maps, deterioration statistics, and tailored repair recommendations, all aligned with local municipality or DOT mandates. BDI strives to find the best means and methods for communicating our work, results, and insights to bridge owners, we develop reports containing content and materials such as:

  • Deliverable

Inspection Documentations

Actionable Reporting and Statistics

Visualized Results

Monitoring System or Structural Testing

BDI delivers detailed visual inspections with comprehensive documentation to support structural evaluations, maintenance planning, and compliance tracking. Our process ensures clear, actionable insights through high-quality imagery and expert analysis.

BDI leverages its engineering expertise and knowledge to develop comprehensive reports containing charts, diagrams, and statistics that offer fast and effective communication of results to support decision making.

Understanding the need for our work to be integrated with existing documents and processes, BDI develops its own CAD or works with client-provided CAD to overlay the results of its NDE services on the structure under investigation.

Depending on the needs of the client BDI will develop and employ a monitoring or testing program to gather the required information. End deliverables will include data reports or engineering consulting. (Link to engineering)

What We Deliver

BDI delivers comprehensive evaluation packages that include detailed visual inspection documentation, high-resolution condition maps, and aggregate statistics with result tables derived from both NDE and visual methods. These deliverables provide clear, actionable insights to support structural assessments, maintenance planning, and compliance with industry standards.
