Abstract

See full text

Extensometer with flexible test specimen and Bragg gratings applied in particular to the monitoring of concrete structures, is configured to measure deformations of a host material and comprises at least one test specimen which undergoes linear bending stresses, and at least one Bragg grating formed in an optic fibre and fixed to the test specimen. The extensometer configured such that any deformation of the host material is transmitted to the grating via the test specimen. The extensometer also comprises mechanical means which transform deformation of the material into bending of the test specimen, which deforms the grating.
