IPC's NDT allows engineers and departments of transportation to identify early damage and structural weaknesses by essentially taking "x-rays" and completely mapping the structures of dams and bridges. With proper assessment of structural damage and decay early on, local governments can properly allocate the funds necessary for maintenance and repairs--before more serious damage occurs, greatly extending the life expectancy of infrastructure and saving millions of taxpayer dollars on long-term repairs.
