| Abstract | The presented work aimed at enhancing the design and detailing of post-tensioned concrete bridge for NDE. Established and promising NDE technologies were surveyed and evaluated for application in post-tensioned bridges. Post-tensioning systems and post-tensioned bridge types were evaluated with respect to the NDE technology. Videos were developed that present current design and detailing practices and proposed practices to better accommodate NDE technology. |
