    Strain Measurement with Fiber Optic Sensors

    An optical strain gauge, or fiber optic strain sensor, is a device that uses fiber optical technology to measure the strain on an object. It detects changes in light transmission when the object attached to it experiences a load. Their non-intrusive nature, high sensitivity, and durability have made them popular for a wide range of. Luna's fiber optic sensing solutions deliver strain measurements that go beyond what's possible with traditional strain gages. While their application in this area has been well-documented, their use in RC columns remains relatively unexplored.
