Abstract

The optical fiber sensing technology is noticed as the technique which can measure strain and displacement of the concrete structure widely and real-time. In this study, the result of measuring the reinforcement strain in the concrete beam using BOTDR [1] (Brillouin Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) sensor that could continuously measure the distribution strain in optical fiber is reported in this paper. The result of the experiment showed that the crack width of the reinforced concrete beam could be evaluated by the BOTDR sensor.
