The management and maintenance of the built heritage is one of the main interests of the owners of concrete structures. The engineers wish to obtain quantitative information about concrete properties and their variability. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is very popular in this context as it quickly provides relevant information on the integrity and evolution of the material, but several kinds of indicators representative of the concrete condition need to be evaluated. A French Project, named SENSO, aims to develop methods for the non-destructive evaluation of concrete based on a multi-techniques approach. Several families of techniques are concerned (ultrasonic, electromagnetic, electrical, etc.). The main objective is to define the sensitivity of the techniques and the variability of the evaluation for each indicator concerned. To achieve this, a large experimental programme, involving a representative range of concretes and several indicators, has been carried out. A large database, linking the NDT observables and the indicators, allows the different observables to be distinguished in terms of quality (linked to the variability) and in terms of relevance for the characterisation of each indicator. The improvement of the indicator evaluation by means of technique combinatio
