Bridge deck deterioration includes delamination, corrosion of rebars, vertical cracking and concrete degradation. Ground Penetrating Radar based inspection technique was used for mapping bridge deck in order to monitor the health of this vital structure. Beginning from the 1970‘s, research has focused on identification of bridge deck deterioration which causes severe deficiencies by reducing seriously strength. The main purpose of this work was to review the literature existing in the field of bridge deck diagnosis by means of Ground Penetrating Radar. This enabled to survey detailed evolution of this technique, to understand the effects of key intervening parameters and to determine the kind of material disorders that this device could be used for. Bridge deck condition assessment can then be performed more successfully, based on the huge progress experienced by this particular method of inspection.

Moisture presence in asphalt concrete (AC) pavement is a major cause of damage to the pavement. In recent decades, an increasing need exists for non-destructive detection and monitoring of the moisture content in AC pavement. This paper provides a simulated approach to quantify the effect of internal moisture content on AC pavement dielectric properties using ground-penetrating radar (GPR). A heterogeneous numerical model was developed to simulate AC pavement with internal moisture at various saturation levels. The numerical model was validated using GPR surveys on cold-in-place recycling treated pavements. An empirical formula was derived from the simulation to correlate the dielectric constant with the moisture content for non-dry AC pavement. The results validated the proposed model and, hence, demonstrated the ability of GPR to monitor moisture variation in AC pavements.
