This type of detail offers unique advantages for improving the performance of concrete members. Recent problems in the United Kingdom and Florida have increased concern over the condition of post-tensioned tendons in Virginia's bridges. There is a need for efficient, cost-effective methods of assessing and monitoring the condition of aging tendons in-situ. This study was carried out to survey the literature that addresses the condition of tendons to identify technology, perform a limited assessment of the feasibility of as many of the candidate technologies as possible, and consider follow-on efforts for development and application to post-tensioned tendons in Virginia in was described.17 pagesapplication/pdfen-USIn CopyrightBridgesMonitoringSensorsCorrosionPost-tensioningTendonsTechnical reporthttp://www.virginiadot.org/vtrc/main/online_reports/pdf/03-cr13.pdf
