P009 APPLICATION OF THE GPR METHOD TO THE DIAGNOSTICS OF BUILDING STRUCTURES IN THE CASE OF BUILDINGS OF HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL IMPORTANCE 1 INTRODUCTION Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a geophysically-based method which has growing applications in civil engineering for the determination and assessment of the condition of the elements of building structures. The main advantage of GPR measurements over other research methods is the fact that this method is non-destructive. Furthermore the GPR method can be used to investigate the whole volume of building elements and measurements can be repeated after a certain time. The paper contains a description
