Among Non-destructive tests Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Method is identified as an efficient and simple method to estimate the mechanical characteristics of the material. In this study, Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Method for Normal concrete were applied to geopolymer concrete specimens. Pressure waves, ultrasonic velocity and maximum frequency in these specimens were measured. similar to normal concrete, Initial ultrasonic velocity of geopolymer concretes reflected stress of geopolymer concretes, but maximum frequency bandwidth did not.

Based on Measurement of the dynamic Modulus of Elasticity Lightweight Aggregate Concrete using USPV. Depending on the materials used absolute difference in dynamic modulus of elasticity was verified, but increasing load was caused Ultrasonic velocities increase, and accordingly the relative value increase in dynamic modulus of elasticity identical trend was confirmed.

Ultrasonic pulse velocity method is widely used to evaluate the internal condition of concrete without loss of the structural integrity. In this study, the specimens were made for the varying the lightweight fine aggregates replacement rate of 0, 50, 100%. These specimens were used to measure the ultrasonic velocity and maximum frequency were analyzed. As Lightweight fine aggregates substitution rate was increased, the ultrasonic velocity and the maximum frequency bandwidth were also increased

In this study, various difference sizes of lightweight fine aggregates were used to make concrete specimens. The pressure waves, ultrasonic velocity and maximum frequency were measured for the specimens. Initial ultrasonic velocities were influenced by the sizes of lightweight fine aggregates, but not by the maximum frequency bandwidth.

변전소 구조물은 가스절연개폐기의 개폐로 유발되는 주기적인 충격하중을 받게 된다. 이러한 주기적인 충격하중은 구조물의 노후화 및 열화를 가속화하여 구조물의 일부 부재 혹은 전반적인 강성 감소를 초래할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 주기적인 충격하중이 구조물에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가하고, 손상 정도를 평가하는 방법을 선정하고자 한다. 따라서, 개략적인 손상 정도를 파악할 수 있는 효율적인 방법으로 인지되고 있는 시스템식별기법을 선정하였다. 선정된 기법에 대한 신뢰성을 검증하기 위해 3층 1경간 축소 모형을 대상으로 모의 손상실험 및 해석을 통해 모드형상 및 고유진동수를 산정하고 결과를 비교하였다.
