This book draws together all available knowledge and information about the impact-echo method and presents it in a concise and logical format. This information has previously been available only in technical reports and journal articles published between 1986 and 1997. Following a brief introduction and review of the development of the method, five chapters are devoted to the physical and mathematical principles on which impact-echo is based, followed by seventeen chapters on applications and case studies. The case studies include photographs, drawings and impact-echo results from field tests on a wide variety of concrete and masonry structures.
