Application of Special Sensor for Deformation Modulus Test of Plastic Concrete

Abstract:

A displacement sensor was designed and made for the deformation modulus test of plastic concrete according to the method of full gauge measurement. Such parameters as sensitivity, linearity and repeatability, etc. were obtained after the calibration of the sensor. The results show that the indicators have met the requirements on the class-1 precision. The results from the practical application of engineering test indicate that the designed displacement sensor which is easy to use and high in the degree of precision can meet the needs of practical application of engineering.
