DIAGNOSTICS OF BUILDING STRUCTURES - LEONARD RUNKIEWICZ

In today's world, as the demands of owners and users of building structures are constantly increasing, the need for frequent repairs, modernizations, and reinforcements becomes indispensable. Each such intervention should be preceded by a thorough diagnosis, which will allow for informed decisions regarding the scope and form of planned construction works. In this context, experts play a key role, who, based on scientific research and meeting the requirements of standards and technical conditions, develop optimal technical and economic solutions.

• Comprehensive diagnostics of building structures
• Analysis of methods for conducting expert opinions
• Assessment of selected types of building structures
• Practical conclusions for experts
• Optimal solutions in technical and economic terms
• Compliance with standards and technical conditions

This monograph by Leonard Runkiewicz is a compendium of knowledge on the diagnostics of building structures. The author, based on his extensive experience and current scientific research, presents the most important problems, analyses, and conclusions regarding the methods of conducting expert opinions, performing diagnostics, and assessing selected types of building structures. This book is an invaluable source of information for experts, civil engineers, students, and anyone interested in the subject of construction.

The monograph discusses in detail issues related to the diagnostics of building structures, including non-destructive testing methods, analysis of the causes of damage, and assessment of the technical condition.
