 ABSTRACT

Monitoring the strength of concrete structures in their early stages is critical to avoid failure and determine readiness for use. Automatic curing is also important to minimize water waste, prevent cracks, and achieve a long-lasting structure.To facilitate automatic curing, a moisture sensor is utilized. Generally, the curing process takes 28 days, which is crucial for attaining the desired strength. This study developed a moisture sensor that automatically monitors the moisture content of concrete structures, even remotely.The strength and moisture values are presented in a graphical format, indicating that the beam achieved a strength of 26.5N/mm2 at 28 days and 30.8 N/mm2 at 56 days, demonstrating an increase in strength beyond the 28-day mark.
