Cover Story: Concrete constructions need widespread monitoring for the control of their state of integrity during their service life, in particular after critical events such as earthquakes. The aim of the research is to find a solution to this issue, by analyzing the potential of smart concrete with the addition of carbon microfibers to be utilized in real-scale structures. The study presents experimental results on full-scale elements toward the use of embedded smart concrete sensors in real constructions and discusses the strengths and the limitations of such monitoring systems. The tests, at different scales, demonstrate variations in sensitivity, permit the identification of the most promising filler percentage for monitoring applications, and prove the effectiveness of different types of electrical setup and load applications, up to real-scale elements.
