Description

This study is concerned with the development of non-destructive testing techniques to investigate the steel wire ropes in suspension bridges. In this research, a radiographic testing is approached to evaluate the steel wire ropes were coated with plastic materials. Through laboratory tests, these methods are proved to effectively increase the accuracy in locating and determining the sizes of defects and components within wire rope, and the results of inspection can be used in evaluating the safety of suspension bridges.
