Short summary
When assessing concrete structures durability, the study of the water penetration is critical, because almost all deterioration reactions require the presence of water. Due to the nondestructive nature of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) technique, the objective of this study is, firstly, to assess water penetration depths in concrete from GPR wave parameters. Secondly, a procedure was developed to be able to determine, from GPR signals, the location of waterfront depths.
