8、Summary of Test Method3.1 The vehicle-mounted infrared scanner and video re-corder are driven over the center of each lane of a bridge deck.The data from the scanner is recorded on video tape.Delami-nations appear as white or“hot”areas on a gray or“cooler”background in the video image on a monochrom
9、e scannersystem during daytime testing.During nighttime testing,thedelaminations will appear as dark or“cooler”areas on a whiteor“warmer”background.Delaminations will appear as thewarmer colors on color scanner systems during daytimetesting.Calibration of thermal anomalies using sounding tech-niques
10、 are used to determine the colors associated withdelaminations.3.2 The conventional video image is used to edit theinfrared image and separate those patches or surface defectsthat may be present and may appear as hot areas.3.3 The video recording is used to map the delaminatedareas at a suitable sca
11、le.4.Significance and Use4.1 This test method may be used in conjunction with othertest methods in determining the general condition of a bridgedeck.4.2 Areas indicated as delaminated on overlaid bridge decksmay be an indication of lack of bond between the overlay andthe underlying bridge deck.This
12、test method may be used indetermining specific areas of delaminations requiring repair.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D04 on Roadand Paving Materials and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D04.32 onBridges and Structures.Current edition approved April 15,2022
