Abstract: A method to assess the integrity of a structure is provided and comprises the steps of: i) applying a sinusoidally varying force to the structure at a frequency or frequencies below the lowest frequency that could cause resonance in the structure whereby to set up a dynamic response dominated by the stiffness of the structure; and ii) monitoring the dynamic response of the structure. A device to assess the integrity of a structure is also provided.
