Abstract
Methods of strain measurement in concrete have been investigated experimentally. This paper reports work on embedded resistance strain gauges mounted on concrete and other forms of gauge carrier, techniques for strain gauging embedded steelwork, results of gauge factor tests on briquetted and unbriquetted vibrating wire gauges, and gauge responses to temperature variations. Proposals are outlined for future work particularly on stress meters as distinct from strain gauges.
