Description
- The strain gauge is mounted to steel materials, steel structure, etc. to measure the stress change conditions of the structure caused by the excavation work or the surrounding work and used for determining the stability of earth wall panel and temporary facilities.
- It is also used to measure the deformation of the structure by embedding the sensor in the concrete and to determine the stability.
- The VW sensor is very good in responsiveness and reproducibility and most suitable for permanent measure

Reference
▣ Calculation of strain (με)
– Microstrain(με) = Gage Factor × 10-3 × F2 = Gage Factor × 109 / N2
Where, F= Measurement in Hz unit, N = Measurement in microsec unit, Gage Factor=4.062
▣ Calculation of stress (σ)
– Stress(σ : kg․㎠) = -1.0 × Strain (ε) × Material elastic modulus (E)
▣ Calculation of axial force (P)
– Axial Force(P : ton) = Stress (σ) × Material sectional area (A) ÷ 1000
▣ Standard installation: Steel pipe and Strut
