Another serious drawback is that acoustic emissions are only generated<br />

when the loads on a structure are increased, and this poses considerable<br />

practical problems. Thus, one must still conclude, with regret, that “acoustic<br />

evaluation of phenomena taking place in concrete in structures.”<br />
