Resumen

In order to study the deformation of a bored pile during concrete curing, it is necessary to monitor the strain of the pile. In this paper, Brillouin optical time domain reflectometer (BOTDR) technology is used to monitor the pile strain during concrete curing, and reliable monitoring data are obtained. These data provide a basis for the study of pile deformation and pile?soil interaction during curing of bored cast-in-place piles. Compared with the traditional point strain sensor, the distributed fiber optic sensor is simple in layout and highly accurate; it can fully reflect the strain changes of the pile; the experiment also shows the advantages of distributed fiber optic sensing technology over the traditional point monitoring method.
