Resimeter

Corrosion Monitoring in Concrete Structures

resimeter

The Resimeter system utilizes Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) to monitor the integrity of concrete structures, especially focusing on the corrosion of steel reinforcement bars (rebar) embedded within the concrete. Over time, environmental conditions can cause moisture and chlorides to infiltrate the concrete, leading to the corrosion of the embedded rebar. This system helps engineers detect these early signs of corrosion, providing crucial data for preventive measures.

Key Features

  • Non-Invasive Monitoring: The system does not damage the structure, ensuring continuous monitoring without disturbing the functionality of the concrete.
  • Real-Time Data Collection: Monitors corrosion on-site and provides continuous feedback to engineers.
  • Accurate Resistivity Mapping: Generates resistivity plots to visualize corrosion areas.

Applications

  • Structural Health Monitoring in buildings, bridges, and dams.
  • Preventive Maintenance to extend the lifespan of concrete structures.
  • Asset Management for large-scale infrastructure projects.
