Abstract

A CPGFRP(Carbon Powder Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics) sensor was fabricated for fine crack detection of structures. The electrical resistance of the sensor was measured on condition of various composition of carbon powders and thickness of bundle of glass fibers. The resistance was decreased as the increase of the content of carbon powders and the TEX of the glass fibers. In the case of loading on CPGFRP sensor, because inner crack was propagated, the part of percolation structures was disconnected. The sensor is superior to carbon fiber for the detecting ability of fine crack.
