The articles published in this Special Issue are theoretical–experimental and experimental, and also show the practical nature of the research. They are grouped by topic, and the main content of each article is briefly discussed for your convenience. These articles extend the knowledge in the field of non-destructive testing in civil engineering with regard to new and improved non-destructive testing (NDT) methods, their complementary application, and also the analysis of their results—including the use of sophisticated mathematical algorithms and artificial intelligence, as well as the diagnostics of materials, components, structures, entire buildings, and interesting case studies.Technology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicsscconveyor beltclimatic factorsthermal shocksmechanical propertiesapplied geophysicsurban geophysicsEleftheria SquareERTprobability-based ERT inversion (PERTI) methodGPREMIimpact-echotooth gear impactorcontact durationdelaminationrapid scanningnon-destructive testingconcrete slabbuilding defectsbuilding diagnosisbuilding envelopebuilding inspection systemurgency of repairhistoric buildingsbrick wallsnondestructive testingartificial neural networksNearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB)passive house (PH)heat flux meter (HFM)quantitative infrared thermography (QIRT)building thermal performanceU-valueMediterranean climateelectrical resistivityelectrical impedanceconcretemortarmeasurement accuracyultrasonic elastographyunderground detectionsoil inspectionunderwater acousticsnon-destructive testmonitoringhousingbuildingsfaçadethermal transmittanceHFM methodinfrared thermographysolar loading thermographylock-in thermographypassive thermographythermal thicknessthermal effusivityinfrastructureNDTonsite X-ray bridge inspection950 keV/3.95 MeV X-ray sourcesPC bridgeunfilled groutquantitative evaluation of stage of unfilled groutstep-heating thermographyactive thermographylinear effusivity fitground-penetrating radarsignal featuresmaterial moistureclassificationmachine learningmoisture measurementsbuilding floorscivil engineeringcrack measurementimage processinghigh resolutionworking distancecrack widthvisual inspectionstructure state assessmentground sample distance (GSD)sonic resonant methodimpulse excitation techniqueresonant frequencysteel fiber reinforced concretefiber orientationmicro-computed tomographyultrasoundspectral induced polarizationsmall forceloadinstrumental signaltwo-point bending teststrain gaugecalibration equationTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyHoła Jerzyedt1319567Sadowski ŁukaszedtHoła JerzyothSadowski ŁukaszothBOOK9910595072203321Non-destructive Testing in Civil Engineering3033974UNINA
