IoT in the Concrete Industry

IoT in the Concrete Industry

The idea of implementing sensors in concrete structures is not new. Various types of technologies have been developed over the past 20 years to monitor the performance of concrete materials and structures. These include the measurements related to mechanical properties such as stress, strain and vibration as well as changes in materials characteristics such as temperature and humidity, and even monitoring the chloride penetration and corrosion of rebar in concrete. But, the challenge has been always about the analysis of the collected data and a closed-loop integration of the results in order to optimize various processes during early-age construction and later while in service.

With the recent advancements in the IoT domain including the development of smart wireless sensors, mobile apps, and cloud-based solutions, it is expected to experience a major improvement in the capability of the sensor-based technologies that have been already developed and used in the construction sector. Giatec is a knowledge-based company that has been working over the past few years on wireless and mobile-based concrete testing technologies for various application. But, with the recent announcement of Smart Concrete™, Giatec is bringing a complete IoT package to the concrete industry.
