Testing Technology for Grouted Density and Empty Hole of Prestressed Corrugated Pipe Based on Ultrasonic Wave

In order to explore detecting function for grouted density and empty hole ofcorrugated pipe, the paper proposes a method. Firstly, detect groutedcorrugated pipes and concrete (avoiding corrugated pipes) using elastic wave,judge defective corrugated pipes through comparative analysis of the data.Secondly, detect the defective corrugated pipes using ultrasonic wave, analysisthe test data, determine the specific location and size of defect in corrugatedpipes. Finally, verify by actual design. The result shows that judged locationand size of the empty hole are consistent with the actual situation. So it isfeasible to detect grouted density and empty hole of prestressed corrugatedpipe with the method. So as to provide theoretical guidance for grouteddetection of corrugated pipe.
