Deflection estimation of reinforced concrete beams using long-gauge optic sensors
Deflection is a crucial indicator in structural health monitoring, directly impacting the service life, safety, and economic viability of structures. However, current indirect methods for measuring deflection, such as multi-element FBG sensors or accelerometers, often have limitations. While they may be suitable for flexure-dominated reinforced concrete (RC) specimens in the elastic stage, they neglect the significant influence of nonlinearity and shear deformation. This paper introduces a new approach for estimating the deflection of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using distributed long-gauge optic sensors. The method tackles the limitations of current methods by incorporating the crucial factors of shear deformation, neutral axis position variation and shear stiffness degradation. Experimental studies are first conducted to validate the accuracy and stability of long-gauge optic sensors in small-scale RC members. Algorithms are then utilized the measurement data to estimate the deflection. The results demonstrate the excellent performance of long-gauge optic sensors in measuring shear deformation and vertical deflection of RC beams, as evidenced by comparisons with LVDT measurements. Additionally, a method for decoupling flexural and shear deformation is proposed. This method offers a preliminary assessment of the reinforced concrete (RC) beam type by quantifying the relative significance of shear deformation.
