Strain Monitoring of Widening Cement Concrete Pavement Subjected to Differential Settlement of Foundation

Abstract: This paper describes the use of a sensor based on a fiber Bragg grating (FBG), which is capable of reducing strain transfer errors, to measure the strain features within the top and bottom layers of a cement concrete pavement subject to different degrees of foundation settlement. Based on measured data, the characteristics of the distribution and the variation in the structure strain were analyzed in detail. By comparing the measured results with those obtained by means of finite element analysis, the proposed… Show more

“…Roveri et al [28] presented the results of a field trial with a FBG sensor array system for the realtime monitoring of railway traffic and for the SHM of both the railway track and train wheels. Weng et al [29][30][31] developed a FBG-based sensor network to monitor the strain distributions in the pavement structure, axial stress of tunnel anchor, and foundation settlement; moreover, the centrifugal model test was performed with an improved packaging and installation method for the quasi-distributed sensor system. In view of the aforementioned studies, in situ monitoring through installation of sensors is a widely used method for the investigation into the mechanical properties and strain changes of tunnel liner with better accuracy and reliability [32].…”

“…As such, the above methods do not meet the measurement accuracy requirements for mechanical engineering applications. To meet these requirements, Wang et al used fiber-grating sensors to detect uneven settlement of concrete foundations 73 (Figure 17). Similarly, Zhu 74 installed fiber grating monitoring sensors in foundations, to form a quasi-distributed ground-foundation health monitoring system, and was able to successfully monitor the foundation remotely.…”

“…During the highway construction, engineer often uses pile foundation to stiffen permafrost structure, so as to increase the bearing capacity of subgrade (Khrenov, 2016;Crowther, 2015). As a kind of important pile foundation, cement fly ash gravel (CFG) pile composite is widely applied in the treatment for permafrost foundation owing to the following advantages: little heat radiation, excellent freeze thawing resistance, large lifting amplitude of bearing capacity, simple construction, short construction period and low cost (Zhou and Li, 2010;Song et al, 2015;Weng et al, 2015;Yu et al, 2017;Lai et al, 2016) Foundation Institute of China Academy of Building Research developed CFG pile composite foundation in the early 1990s (Zhao et al, 2008), which greatly facilitated the development of composite foundation theory and design method. CFG pile is high bond strength pile formed by cement, fly ash, gravel, aggregate chips, sand, and a moderate amount of water, together with soil between piles and cushion to form composite foundation.…”
