Existing sensor technology has not evolved for many years, but switching from electrochemical principles to piezoelectric sensors will allow far more accurate monitoring of corrosion rates in reinforced concrete structures.
“With CorroSense from FORCE Technology, sensor technology enters a whole new era. The existing sensors currently used in reinforced concrete structures measure corrosion based on electrochemical principles, but the accuracy and level of detail in corrosion rate can be significantly improved by switching to piezoelectric sensors”…
