The VW Embedment Strain Gauge is an advanced solution tailored for precision in measuring internal strains within mass concrete structures. This gauge features two stainless steel pads seamlessly connected by a protective tube that houses a sealed steel wire. Engineered to withstand challenging conditions, the gauge is equipped with flat circular flanges on both end pads, facilitating the transfer of concrete deformation to the embedded wire for precise strain measurement.
With a coil assembly at the center, the VW Embedment Strain Gauge offers flexible mounting options—whether pre-attached to rebar or connected to a directional rosette for multi-directional strain measurement. The gauge can also monitor temperature, providing a comprehensive approach to structural analysis.
