Keywords Infrastructure proliferation Concrete utilization Structural health monitoring (SHM) Smart aggregates Developmental directionsIn recent times, the use of concrete has greatly increased alongside the rapid growth of global infrastructure. However, concrete structures face various risks like dynamic forces from winds or earthquakes and environmental impacts like corrosion. These challenges are more significant due to the saturation of infrastructure projects worldwide. To tackle these issues and ensure the long-term strength of structures, the field of structural health monitoring (SHM) has become incredibly important. One promising technology in this area is the use of smart aggregates. These are special materials that are embedded in concrete and serve three main purposes: monitoring early concrete strength, detecting impacts, and continuously monitoring the health of structures. Smart aggregates have several advantages, including being able to detect a wide range of frequencies, responding quickly, being easy to make, process, and cost-effective. Because of these benefits, they are becoming widely used for monitoring the health of structures. As time has passed, there have been significant improvements in smart aggregate technology. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the basic principles behind using smart aggregates for structural health monitoring. It also discusses the progress made in the last twenty years in three main areas: technology development, measurement range, and wireless capabilities. Additionally, the article briefly discusses recent real-world uses of smart aggregates for structural health monitoring. Looking ahead, the article outlines potential future trends in the development of smart aggregate technology. It emphasizes the need for more research to better understand how these materials perform and how effective they are in different situations. This research is crucial for making further advancements in ensuring the durability and safety of structures.

“…This combination of techniques allows for the measurement of the displacement and deformation of the beam under loading, providing detailed information about the flexural behavior of the beam and the distribution of stresses and strains within the material. It can also be used to study the behavior of structures under different loading conditions, such as fatigue and impact loading [189,190].…”

Structural health monitoring (SHM) is crucial for maintaining concrete infrastructure. The data collected by these sensors are processed and analyzed using various analysis tools under different loadings and exposure to external conditions. Sensor-based investigation on concrete has been carried out for technologies used for designing structural health monitoring sensors. A Sensor-Infused Structural Analysis such as interfacial bond-slip model, corroded steel bar, fiber-optic sensors, carbon black and polypropylene fiber, concrete cracks, concrete carbonation, strain transfer model, and vibrational-based monitor. The compressive strength (CS) and split tensile strength (STS) values of the analyzed material fall within a range from 26 to 36 MPa and from 2 to 3 MPa, respectively. The material being studied has a range of flexural strength (FS) and density values that fall between 4.5 and 7 MPa and between 2250 and 2550 kg/m3. The average squared difference between the predicted and actual compressive strength values was found to be 4.405. With cement ratios of 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5, the shear strength value ranged from 4.4 to 5.6 MPa. The maximum shear strength was observed for a water–cement ratio of 0.4, with 5.5 MPa, followed by a water–cement ratio of 0.3, with 5 MPa. Optimizing the water–cement ratio achieves robust concrete (at 0.50), while a lower ratio may hinder strength (at 0.30). PZT sensors and stress-wave measurements aid in the precise structural monitoring, enhanced by steel fibers and carbon black, for improved sensitivity and mechanical properties. These findings incorporate a wide range of applications, including crack detection; strain and deformation analysis; and monitoring of temperature, moisture, and corrosion. This review pioneers sensor technology for concrete monitoring (Goal 9), urban safety (Goal 11), climate resilience (Goal 13), coastal preservation (Goal 14), and habitat protection (Goal 15) of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
