For prefabricated concrete structure, the core is the connection technology of stress-bearing steel bars. At present, most of the vertical connections of stress-bearing steel bars in prefabricated concrete structures are connected by sleeve grouting. Due to the complex structure of the steel sleeve grouting connection and the fact that it is a hidden project, the detection technology of the grouting quality inside the sleeve has not made any breakthroughs, which has become a recognized difficulty in the industry. Whether the sleeve grouting is full directly affects the shear bearing capacity and seismic resistance of the structure. In the "JGJ 1-2014 Technical Code for Prefabricated Concrete Structures", the requirements for component connections are clearly defined. Since the application of prefabricated houses in China, the industry has been studying the detection method of grouting fullness to achieve the purpose of controlling construction quality. However, the steel sleeve connection structure is a multi-layer alternating medium, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a first concrete member, a first steel bar, a sleeve, a second steel bar, a second concrete member, a grouting hole and a grouting hole, wherein metal and non-metal media are alternately present, and the mortar body is very thin in radial direction, generally 5 mm or 6 mm, which makes it impossible to effectively detect it using existing engineering non-destructive testing methods.
