Self-Sensing Concrete

Self-sensing concrete has the capability to sense the conditions inside it and environmental change including stress (or force), strain (or deformation), crack, damage, temperature, and humidity through incorporating functional fillers or sensing component. It can be classified into intrinsic self-sensing concrete and non-intrinsic self-sensing concrete. The physical parameters of self-sensing concrete will change as it is subjected to external force, deformation, or environmental action, thus presenting sensing capability. The self-sensing concrete has great potential in the fields of structural health monitoring, traffic detection, and border/military security.
