Abstract

Objectives: To design a non-destructive, low-effort, low-cost device that can estimate the early age and compressive strength of in-place concrete in real time. The maturity protocol eliminates the need for on-site concrete cylinder break checks or hammer tapping test saving time and resources. Methods: Four different temperature sensors were used to measure the temperature of concrete in order to improve the system’s accuracy. As concrete structure monitoring with temperature sensors is a continuous process, the study includes automated data logging at regular intervals, storage of measured temperature data over time on an attached SD card, and transmission to a server through the SIM800L’s GPRS capability. Findings: The current work presents a low-cost (31 USD), low-powered (3.7v/2.8A), and portable temperature sensor and logger that will track and record temperature values so that values can be monitored remotely from anywhere on the planet. Data can be managed and tracked from any location and on any computer that has internet access. Communication between presented units with MQTT platform has been studied. Novelty/Applications: This device is a simple batteryoperated, small-size, compact, low-power data acquisition system with multiple sensors. With the support of GPRS, data can be sent to a server. Concrete testing delays are no longer a concern. It is possible to check the status of pour and receive updates anytime, wherever, on any computer with this method’s real-time data and 24/7 remote monitoring capabilities. This simple,trouble-free module is completely integrated and needs no wires or testing laboratories, allowing for quick onsite decisions and preventing unnecessary setbacks.
