Abstract

See full text

A system for estimating tension in a post-tensioned rod is provided. The system includes an impact device for transversely-impacting a post-tensioned rod, an accelerometer configured to generate data indicative of a vibrational response in the post-tensioned rod, and a receiver communicatively coupled to the accelerometer. The receiver includes a display, at least one input device, a communication module, a processor, and one or more memory devices coupled to the processor. Instructions stored on the one or more memory devices, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receiver the data indicative of a vibrational response in the post-tensioned rod, process the received data to determine a difference between a first and a second modal frequency corresponding to the vibrational response, and store the difference between a first and second modal frequency corresponding to the vibrational response. The receiver is configured to transmit the stored difference between a first and second modal frequency.
