Concrete is the most widely used building material in civil infrastructure, and strength is the
most effective evaluation index to measure its quality. Sub-standard raw materials, flawed …

The ability to monitor the strength development of early-age concrete is an important
capability in the laboratory and in the field. Accurate and reliable in situ measurements can …

The stiffness and strength properties of freshly poured concrete develop over time as the
concrete hardens due to curing. The monitoring of such properties therefore enables timely …

The in-situ strength of concrete is often evaluated by destructive compressive strength tests
conducted on cylinders or cube specimens cast alongside the main structure. Various non …

This paper aims to investigate the feasibility of using piezoelectric-based sensors to
characterize the compressive strength gain process of cement paste blended with …

Damage detection is one of the most important major branches of non-destructive
evaluation. In this study, a damage detection method for localization and size quantification …

A simply strategy for monitoring the corrosion process via the peak-to-peak amplitude of
ultrasonic guided waves is performed to capture the initial and cover cracking stage of …

Structural adhesives are employed as bonding agents in the construction industry, to
externally bond fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials onto existing structures …

Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) sensors have become popular in structural health monitoring
(SHM) using the electromechanical impedance (EMI) technique for damage identification …

Damage localization plays a key role in structural damage identification and health
monitoring. This paper proposed a new damage localization approach using …
