Assessment of the current strength of structure is an important aspect before taking measures of seismic requalification and retrofitting of an existing concrete structure, if required. The assessment of concrete structure is not only about evaluation of its present condition but to predict the cause of deterioration and its residual life as well. Structural audit is the technical survey of the building in order to check its strength and stability. In this case non-destructive testing methods are widely applied to study mechanical properties and structural integrity of the concrete. The concept of non-destructive testing (NDT) is to obtain material properties of specimens without the destruction of the member/element of structure and to do the structural health monitoring together. Also the maintenance, rehabilitation and upgrading of structural members is one of the most critical problems in civil engineering applications. The paper provides an overview of the different tests performed on existing RC framed structure carrying various equipment for health assessment and further provides a brief account of the results along with response spectrum analysis of that existing RC framed structure is performed.
