“…The unique opportunity to obtain such a large number of samples enabled the discovery of empirical relationships between results obtained from various methods. The body of knowledge on non-destructive methods is very broad, as exemplified by the numerous papers on the subject [40][41][42][43][44]. This article is a continuation of the extensive literature on non-destructive testing, but focuses strictly on the specificity of large-panel buildings.…”

Structural condition diagnostics provides the basis for decision making regarding the possibility of continued safe operation, necessary reinforcement, repair work, and in extreme cases, dismantling of the structure. The most reliable results concerning the condition and strength of materials are provided by destructive testing. However, these tests are very time-consuming, costly, and difficult to perform on in-service facilities. In addition, they involve the need to obtain the consent of the occupants of the premises and subsequent renovations. This article focuses on presenting an opportunity to reduce the number of destructive tests necessary to reliably assess the condition of large-panel structures, which constitute a significant housing stock in Europe. Based on tests carried out on a real building, the risk factors associated with obtaining reliable results by non-destructive methods were determined. Areas where destructive testing is necessary were identified. In addition, reference was made to standard recommendations and guidelines from a reputable research institution. Practical guidelines were formulated regarding the diagnostics of large-panel structures, resulting in a reduction in the number of destructive tests required.
