Summary: | The most efficient tools in real monitoring system is acoustic emission (AE). This technique can be used to identify the damage classifications in RC structure. This research paper will mainly focus on the utilization of signal strength and Absolute energy (AE signal) in determining on the damage quantification for RC beam subjected to cyclic load test. The beam specimens size (150 X 250 X 1900) mm were prepared in the laboratory and tested with the four point bending test using cyclic loading together with acoustic emission monitoring system. The results showed that the analysis of AE data parameters is capable of determining the damage classification in concrete structures and the data corresponded to the visual observations during the increased loading cycle. |
