Recently, there has been an increase in interest in structure maintenance, and the number of facilities requiring structural safety reviews due to natural disasters and aging structures is rapidly increasing. Therefore, research into testing the mechanical properties of structures is essential. A tensile test and a fatigue test are two existing material property evaluation methods. However, because they necessitate the process of collecting and processing specimens from the inspection object, these destructive methods are inefficient in terms of time and cost. To compensate for these shortcomings, the current state and future prospect of non-destructive technology will be described using digital image correlation (DIC) and TRITOP as a non-contact, non-destructive (NDT) inspection method.
