ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for testing the structural joints in steel buildings is described. The invention provides electromechanical test units fixed at the joints of a building and permanently wired to a test apparatus such as an ultrasonic test monitor. Such a monitor may be one of many that are in communication with a central monitor and test management computer so as to accomplish wide spread testing of many buildings immediately after an earthquake by remote access.
