Recently, the number of aged traffic structures is increasing in Japan. Most of them require constant maintenance to prevent an accident. Kobe city has a lot of aged illumination pillars and had two fall accidents, unfortunately. To detect an illumination pillar with a defect quickly, we apply a guided wave excited by electromagnetic acoustic transducers to a nondestructive testing system. This method has the potential for low-cost and efficient testing. When testing buried illumination pillars, it is neces...
