NASA Causeway Evaluation
February, 2022
NEXCO and the University of Central Florida (UCF) collaboratively evaluated two target bridge structures managed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) at Kennedy Space Center (KSC). The bridges carry NASA Causeway over the Indian River. With the implementation of rapid scanning NDE technology, the total surface area of deficient findings was mapped and quantified. Our deck scanning system, DTSS, was used to scan the deck top surface, while our universal scanning system, U3S, was used to scan the soffit, girders, and bents.
