Project description
Advanced technology measures concrete strength
The construction sector is expanding worldwide. It is expected to grow by a whopping 85 % by 2030. However, a major stumbling block is concrete strength – a material used extensively in building, bridges and roads. The capability to estimate adequate curing of concrete is vital. Current methods available for the estimation of solidification are costly, time-consuming and are not fully reliable. The EU-funded cloudsensing project offers a revolutionary service. Specific sensors measure the strength of concrete during the process of solidification. The data collected by sensors are elaborated and returned to the customer, thanks to cloud-based IoT infrastructure. The service will help construction companies to save time, reduce costs and increase the safety of buildings.
