Research on Wireless Remote Monitoring System of the Durability for Large Concrete Structures

Abstract:

A wireless remote monitoring sensor network for durability of large concrete structures is designed and studied in the case that traditional parameters monitoring and durability evaluation methods are willing to promote to meet modern requirements. As traditional monitoring methods of concrete structure focus on the structural parameters while missed the research on durability of the structures, a Internet of Things (IOT) system of durability monitoring is designed to optimize and develop. By deploy sensor nodes for durability monitoring system based on ZigBee wireless network and GPRS remote data transmission, the durability sensor data collected can be send to the monitoring and evaluation computer information system based on data fusion to finish intelligent analysis, evaluation and early warning. In this way, the system conquered the problems that high maintenance cost, early deterioration of structural performance and shorten useful life, contributed to the structural safety of large-scale concrete works and take action to maintain normal operations in time. This meets the requirements of China's economic sustainable development, so it has important social significance and economic values.
