The syllabi for training courses that cover the conventional NDT methods are available in IAEA-TECDOC-628. This TECDOC covers the conventional methods of liquid penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing, eddy current testing, radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, visual inspection and leak testing. Based on these syllabi, training course notes have been produced to cover Industrial Radiography (IAEA Training Course Series No. 3) and Ultrasonic Testing of Materials at Level 2 (IAEA Training Course Series No. 10). These training course notes deal predominantly with the NDT of metallic materials. While NDT of metallic materials is a very important application, NDT is being used increasingly for the inspection of concrete structures. Training Course Series Nos. 3 and 10 cover the inspection of concrete using the relevant NDT method; however, coverage is brief and does not present the whole range of NDT methods used for the NDT of concrete. Concrete has become a very common construction material in most IAEA Member States and problems have occurred because of faulty construction practice. A need was therefore identified for a guidebook on the NDT of concrete. The first IAEA Training Course on the NDT of Concrete and other Non-Metallic Materials was held in 1987 in Japan, at the Japanese Society for Non-Destructive Inspection. Subsequent courses/workshops were held in Thailand and Singapore. In 1998, AFRA national co-ordinators prepared a draft syllabus on the NDT of Concrete. This syllabus was circulated for comment to national co-ordinators in other IAEA projects. R.S. Gilmour (Australia) compiled the first draft of the training material, which was circulated to the national NDT co-ordinators for the NDT subproject in different RCA countries. IAEA experts discussed the amendments made to this draft at a Meeting on the NDT of concrete in the Malaysian Institute for Nuclear Technology (MINT), Malaysia in September 1999. During the compilation of this manuscript, guidance and support were provided by Abd Nassir Ibrahim from Malaysia and G. Singh from India. The IAEA officer responsible for this publication was A.A. Khan of the Division of Physical and Chemical Sciences.

BS 9250:2007 provides guidance on methods that can be used to meet the “well sealed ceiling” requirements for cold and warm pitched roofs.
Applicable to architects, house builders, and building control officers it outlines robust design details for the construction of more airtight ceilings and for the control of air movement into pitched roofs.
BS 9250 provides guidance for dwellings and domestic buildings on the selection of materials, design principles, construction methods and design details covering: the junction of walls and ceilings; junctions of ceiling materials; penetration through ceilings (e.g. pipes, outlets, cables, light fittings, loft hatches, tubular rooflights and roof windows). It also includes cold and warm roof applications and will apply to new, and the refurbishment of existing, buildings.

Guide for the Design and Construction of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Structures
Size: 0.6 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: CNR – Advisory Committee on Technical Recommendations for Construction | Year: 2007 | pages: 57
This document contributes to the series published over the last few years by the Italian CNR
(National Research Council) relating to the structural use of composite materials, with the first
volume being the Instructions n. 200 in 2004. The documents published so far have dealt with the
following: plating of reinforced and prestressed concrete as well as masonry structures through the
use of long fibers reinforced composite materials (FRP) (CNR-DT 200/2004), plating of timber
structures (CNR-DT 201/2005) as well as metallic ones (CNR-DT 202/2005) and finally, the use of
FRP bars as reinforcement of concrete structures (CNR-DT 203/2006).
The subject of this document is the structural use of a completely different composite material:
Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC). It does not have a polymeric matrix like a Fiber Reinforced
Polymer (FRP) but a cementitious matrix to which short fibers are added. They can be made of
steel, polymeric materials as well as inorganic materials such as carbon, glass and natural materials.
Furthermore, an ordinary steel reinforcement as well as reinforcing prestressed bars can also be
present. The adding of fibers to concrete gives a significant residual strength after cracking. This
property depends on many factors, including the aspect ratio (corresponding to the
length/equivalent diameter of the fibers), the volumetric percentage of the fibers as well as their
physical and mechanical properties.
FRC structures have become gradually more widespread worldwide over the last few years. This
has consequently led to the drawing up of technical guidelines becoming necessary.
