Abstract :Ground-penetrating radar insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GPR); is one of the most recommended non-destructive methods in identifying of structural elements of building. The B building of the Cumhuriyet University, Engineering Faculty was assessed by using the 1600 MHz antennas. As a result of evaluate of GPR data, the locations, horizontal and vertical interval, radius and corrosion rate of reinforcements in curtain walls is determined. It is proposed that the main reason of the structural changes in the reinforcements may be caused by groundwater.
