Real-time assessment of timber-surface crack repair is crucial to the stability and safety of timber structures. Epoxy resin was used to repair timber cracks, and the active sensing technique using piezoelectric ceramics was applied to monitor the repair process of timber surface cracks in real time. Sixteen wood samples were designed for axial compression tests and active monitoring tests. A pair of lead zirconate titanate patches was pasted on the surface of the timber specimens as actuators and sensors for signal transmission and reception, through wavelet packet analysis, the variations in the signal amplitude, and wavelet coefficients. The relationship between the wavelet packet energy of the monitoring signal and the ultimate bearing capacity of the specimens at different periods after grouting was established. Based on the root-mean-square deviation, the damage index, DI, was introduced to evaluate the repair degree of timber surface cracks quantitatively. The results showed that the active sensing method can evaluate the strength development in timber-surface crack repair in real time. |
