SYNOPSIS

Forensic engineering for structures and infrastructures is the application of engineering principles and techniques to investigate and analyze failures or damages. The purpose of forensic engineering is to determine the cause of the failure or damage and provide recommendations to prevent similar incidents in the future. One of the application techniques is by applying nondestructive testing (NDT) during the inspection or monitoring. One of the approaches in NDT testing is the utilization of impulse radar for determining the problems in the structures and infrastructures. More information such as abnormalities, identifying reinforcement details and others are the data that can be exploited using these techniques. The fast, reliable, and accurate analysis provides more options for remedial solutions to the building's integrity checking.
