Making Concrete "Smart"

The core of the SmartPile® system is the embedded wireless sensor device - often referred to as the Embedded Data Collector or EDC - that is cast directly into structural elements as the concrete as being poured.  The SmartPile device consists of a Dataport, which is a miniature battery-powered electronic unit that is embedded into a concrete element along with one to four Sensorpacks.  The Dataport collects data from its attached Sensorpacks and wirelessly transmits the data to a receiving unit.  Each SensorPack consists of a combination accelerometer and strain gage.  The SmartPile® components are designed to survive in concrete from pouring to curing to severe construction processes (pile driving, for example) and beyond.
