But there is no \u2018one-size-fits-all\u2019 approach for such a task. State-of-the-art information on visual inspections, destructive and nondestructive testing (NDT), and the hands-on experience provided in this workshop, are essential for those involved in evaluating concrete, masonry, wood, and metal structures. Different situations, conditions and materials &#8211; concrete, wood, metal, stone &#8211; require different techniques and testing procedures.<\/p>\n<p>This three-day course covers material evaluation practices and procedures used for assessing the structural condition of existing structures. It covers many aspects of evaluating structures and structural material conditions. By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0 Plan and conduct a condition survey for concrete, masonry, wood and metal structures.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 Develop a condition survey inspection checklist.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 Design a materials evaluation program for your structural condition assessment projects.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 Select the best destructive and
