Integrity Testing of Pile Cover Using Distributed Fibre Optic Sensing

Integrity Testing of Pile Cover Using Distributed Fibre Optic Sensing

The integrity of cast-in-place foundation piles is a major concern in geotechnical engineering. In this study, distributed fibre optic sensing (DFOS) cables, embedded in a pile during concreting, are used to measure the changes in concrete curing temperature profile to infer concrete cover thickness...
