Purpose and Background
Condition assessment of existing infrastructure is becoming increasingly important to determine the useful remaining life. Broadband Electromagnetic testing provides a method to measure metallic structures wall thickness. BEM testing can be done on structures with a corroded surface profiles or coatings up to two inched thick. This webinar provides information on the capabilities and limitations of BEM testing. It discusses setup requirements, where BEM testing can be used, how testing is done, and how the data is used. It provides a description of the equipment used, an explanation of the test procedure, and time requirements.
