Abstract

Basic concepts of an algorithm for assessing the condition of reinforcement in concrete are discussed. Analytical expressions for estimating the errors in the parameter characterizing the damage to steel reinforcement components have been obtained. A formula for calculating the efficiency of the testing procedure has been derived.
