Evaluation experiment on the shear bonding performance of UHPC(180MPa level concrete) was conducted according to retardation time and size of specimen. As a result, the smaller the size of specimen, the weaker the measured bonding performance of specimen.

The FBG sensor responses simultaneously to changes in thermal strain as well as elastic strain. Thus the total strain measured from a single FBG sensor shall be corrected to obtain the elastic strain by removing the temperature effect. This paper addresses how the temperature effect can be removed when the FBG sensor is encapsulated in a 7-wire steel strand. For this purpose, fundamental properties of the FBG sensor are identified through tests using a controlled temperature chamber. Then field measurements on a UHPC pi girder with the size of 11.0 m long, 5.0 m wide, and 0.6 m high have been conducted for about one year, and the prestressing force is estimated using the raw data from the FBG sensor and by applying temperature correction technique proposed in this study. Estimated results indicate that the proposed correction technique is executable for extracting the elastic strain from monitoring data using the FBG sensor in civil infrastructures.
