Ground penetrating radar inspection of a large concrete spillway: A case-study using SFCW GPR at a hydroelectric dam
Hydroelectric dams are subject to aging and degradation. The concrete structure under investigation here had visible signs of spalling, cracking, and erosion, but it was unclear how damaged the spillway was below the surface. The asset owners wanted to identify delamination and voids 60 cm or larger...
