Abstract:Masonry structures are particularly vulnerable to seismic loads due to their brittle and nonhomogeneous behavior. Therefore, assessing their conditions after significant events is especially critical: this could be achieved through a reliable monitoring system able to identify significant variations of strains and stresses which could induce cracks. To this aim, the authors developed a new clay-based smart brick sensor as a novel solution for strain monitoring of masonry elements fully integrated into the wall… Show more
