Abstract
Purpose This study aims to explore the effect of corrosion monitoring technology for ensuring concrete structure safety. Design/methodology/approach A new monitoring system scheme with unattended operation to evaluate the durability of concrete structures is presented, which includes four components, namely, a multi-function embedded sensor, a microprocessor data collecting module, a system data analysis and storage module, and a remote server module. Findings The system carries out monitoring of chloride ion concentration and pH in concrete, corrosion current density and of the self-corrosion potential of the reinforcing steel bar. Originality/value This system provides real-time, online, lossless monitoring for concrete structures.
