RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF POF BASED SMART TRANSPARENT CONCRETE

Energy saving and safety evaluation are two key problems for infrastructures. In this paper, a novel smart transparent concrete using plastic optical fibre (POF) and Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is developed. And its transparent and smart sensing properties have also been studies. The experimental results show that the optical fiber can be easily combined with concrete. And the POF could provide a steady light transmitting ratio. Moreover, the FBG can be used as sensing element for strain and temperature. This paper also concerns about the mechanical effects for introducing POF into concrete specimens. Due to the smart transparent concrete can be regarded as both “green energy saving construction material as well as smart intrinsic sensor for long-term Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), it will be attractive for field application in infrastructures.
