Abstract

According to one embodiment, a structure evaluation system includes an impact imparting unit, a plurality of sensors, a position locator, and an evaluator. The impact imparting unit applies impacts to a second region different from a first region of a structure to which traveling sections of a vehicle, which travels on the structure, apply impacts. The plurality of sensors detect elastic waves generated in the structure. The position locator locates a position of a source of the elastic waves on the basis of the elastic waves detected by each of the plurality of sensors. The evaluator evaluates a deterioration state of the structure on the basis of a position location result of the position locator.
