CSIR-Central Building Research Institute

Finalizing specifications for sensors to be fabricated by CSIR-CGCRI.

Developing algorithms based on analytical and experimental results from various sensors, including FBG strain sensors, accelerometers, displacement sensors, and tilt sensors, with a focus on sensor optimization and sparse modal information.

Validating the CGCRI-developed sensors against commercially available sensors at a lab scale.
Conducting full-scale instrumentation of test structures using CGCRI-developed sensors.

Validating the developed algorithms for damage identification with indigenous sensors.

Demonstrating the efficiency of indigenous sensors and developed algorithms for damage assessment, including features such as wireless data transfer to the control room, alarm systems for failure detection during the structure's service life, and provisions for temporary damage induction.
