Corrosion Monitoring System in Reinforced Concrete using GPRS

Abstract

Corrosion is a factor that degrades bridges and structures; for this reason, it is important to study it to minimize its impact. Corrosion is generally presented by carbonation and concentration of chloride ions. In this work was designed and implemented a system that allowed the measurement of the electrical resistivity of concrete, the concentration of CO2, relative humidity, and concrete temperature; through this is possible to know the structure's corrosive states.
