Giatec Reduces Sensor Calibration Time with Automatic Concrete Mix Detection: The SmartRock Pro Self-Calibrating Sensor

From weather conditions, scheduling issues, or even last-minute changes to your mix order and delivery, since you never know what changes will come your way on the concrete construction site Giatec wanted to update their SmartRock maturity sensor to provide concrete contractors savings. SmartRock Pro is designed to take all fluctuations in stride by self-calibrating to cut costs, save time, and fight construction waste from break tests.  

Giatec ScientificWith the SmartRock Pro’s self-calibrating feature, users only need to tag the sensor and install it to begin measuring concrete strength in real-time, saving projects multiple days per pour. This new sensor measures concrete strength using multiple advanced sensing methods without requiring any manual input. Secured to the rebar, the sensor is fully embedded, making it completely maintenance and hassle-free. Furthermore, with concrete being delivered to site with very little visibility into the variability of the mix from truck to truck, these self-calibrating sensors will now measure accurate concrete strength independently of the concrete being received. 

Adding new self-calibrating concrete strength monitoring sensors to Giatec’s advanced AI solutions provides general contractors and concrete producers with a superior solution ecosystem that cuts cost, saves time, and produces less waste from break tests while reducing significant GHG emissions resulting from concrete production. 

Giatec launched SmartRock Pro at World of Concrete 2023.
