| The EM Series of vibrating wire strain gauges are designed for concrete embedment and to measure strains caused by stress variations. The stress can also be evaluated when the concrete's modulus of elasticity is known, following compensation for temperature, creeping and concrete reaction effects.
The EM-5 is the standard model and is used in different types of structures such as dams, nuclear power plants, bridges, tunnels, etc. The EM-10 consists of a rugged version to be embedded in concrete with coarse aggregates. The shorter EM-2 model is designed for laboratory use or for limited spaces. |
