Abstract
Functional capacities of a unidirectional eddy-current probe are studied from the viewpoint of localization of reinforcement in reinforced-concrete elements and measurement of its geometric parameters. Such a design of the probe is shown to be inefficient for testing reinforced-concrete items where the reinforcing frame is complex in shape and the content of reinforcement is over 2%. A design of the attachable eddy-current probe is proposed that allows this problem to be solved more efficiently.
