Abstract

A portable Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) sensor for non-destructive concrete corrosion
estimation is disclosed. The sensor, which uses a Multiple Loop Coil (MLC), is able to detect and
differentiate the chemical contents present in a concrete structure. The sensor is integrated with
various component such as batteries, measuring sensor head, micro controller, memory storage for
saving measured data, LED for indication and graphical display of measurement on the device. The
MLC technique enables detection of corrosion of concrete structures for different chemical contents
at any stage of corrosion occurring in real-time.
