Abstract
This chapter is devoted to the assessment of the geometry of concrete components. This is of interest for many structures, for which the testing solutions may differ, according to the environment and to constraints like accessibility. We have chosen to discuss possible solutions for pavements, thin elements (mainly concrete slabs and tunnel shells) and foundations (shallow foundations and piles).
Other contributors to this chapter are G. Ballivy, X. Dérobert, A. Kodjo, F. Pires and L. Olson.
