Successful NDT-CE-Conference on Non-Destructive Testing in Civil Engineering
The NDT-CE-Conference - the International Symposium on Non-Destructive Testing in Construction was hosted in Zurich from August 16 to 18, 2022. More than 200 participants from all circles around construction, real estate and infrastructure management met to exchange information and experiences with representatives from research and development.
The International Symposium on Non-Destructive Testing in Civil Engineering, the NDT-CE Conference, is held every three years at selected locations worldwide. This year, SVTI had the privilege of hosting and organizing the event on August 16-18, 2022. The conference with over 160 presentations, poster sessions, panel discussions, pre-conference workshops aimed to contribute to the continuous development of structural diagnostics. The international audience was provided with a platform for exchange on the current state of NDT technologies and perspectives for future initiatives.
An excerpt from the conference program presents itself as follows:
- Building diagnostics with non-destructive testing methods such as ultrasound and radar
- Artificial intelligence for data analysis
- Digital building models
- Case studies on structural damage and diagnostic possibilities
A highlight of the event was the Start-up Innovation Special, which showcased the high level of innovation and entrepreneurship in the field of non-destructive testing in construction.
The constellation of professors, scientists, doctoral students and engineers meeting equipment manufacturers and product managers as well as architects and planners at the NDT-CE Conference in 2022 confirmed that sustainable construction must go hand in hand with modern quality assurance tools and data-based asset management. Reliable technologies for diagnosing and evaluating the building structure are also crucial, particularly in the case of existing buildings.
