Structural Health Monitoring Of RCC Slab Using PZT Material: An Overview
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
In order to study the damage detection or structural health monitoring of RCC slab by the using of PZT smart material. During the process of monitoring or analyzing the damage, simply PZT patches are attached to the surface of reinforced concrete slabs and this research objects with Electromechanical Impedance Method were adopted for further analysis and detection. Calculation rules with consistent rule are found. Root mean square method (RMSD) and the correlation coefficient deviation (CCD) damage indices are capable of detecting the structural damage. The damage index changes regularly with the distance of damages to the sensor. This relationship can be used to determine the damage location. The newly proposed damage index is accurate in determining the damage location.
