Abstract
A test device and process for inspecting the integrity of prestressed construction elements. The device comprises a testing head having a magnetization device for generating a magnetic field around the construction element. The testing head is connected to a controller device for controlling the magnetization process and for processing signals corresponding to the magnetic field. The testing head magnetizes the construction element over a predetermined measurement section. The controller switches the magnetization device after the magnetization process is completed and then stores and processes the signals recorded.
