The most popular technique for modelling of an electromagnetic field, the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method, has recently become a popular technique as an interpretation tool for ground penetrating radar (GPR) measurements. The aim of this study is to detect the size and the position of damage in a reinforced concrete beam using GPR maps. Numerical simulations were carried out using the finite differ-ence time domain method. Four different damage scenarios with different crack width and shape were investigated. The influence of the frequency of applied electromagnetic (EM) waves on the possibility of damage detection was examined.
