Concrete Corrosion Monitoring at Every Stage of Structural Health Management

Integrating Corrosion Monitoring Throughout the Lifecycle of Concrete Structures

Corrosion is one of the leading threats to the durability and safety of concrete infrastructure — and effective monitoring should be embedded in your structural health strategy from construction through to the operational lifespan of the asset.

By integrating corrosion monitoring at every stage, you gain early visibility into risks, validate construction quality, confirm repair effectiveness, and track ongoing structural health over time. Using a combination of construction-phase monitoring systems, such as the ConcreteIntel P4/P6 embedded probes installed during construction, and retrofit solutions like the ConcreteIntel-Mini, which can be easily deployed during renovation, remediation works, or added to structures that lack an existing corrosion monitoring system, you create a complete monitoring framework that evolves with your asset.

Whether you’re working on a new build or maintaining an ageing structure, both approaches play a crucial role in delivering accurate, actionable insights — helping you make informed decisions, optimise maintenance, and extend the lifespan of critical infrastructure.

Benefits of a Lifecycle Approach to Corrosion Monitoring:

  • Accurate, real-time corrosion monitoring
    • Compatibility with DAUintel and third-party data platforms
    • Supports proactive maintenance strategies
    • Extended asset lifespan through data-driven decisions
    • Informed maintenance and repair planning

ConcreteIntel-Mini: Retrofit Concrete Corrosion Monitoring Probe

Best for:

  • Post-construction monitoring
  • Repair verification
  • Existing structures without pre-installed systems.

The ConcreteIntel-Mini, a retro fit probe is purpose-built for installation after construction is complete. It provides precise, continuous monitoring of corrosion activity and concrete curing conditions — without damaging the existing structure.

Its compact design enables straightforward installation into drilled holes in hardened concrete, delivering accurate measurements and eliminating the need for separate systems to confirm passivation layers. Data can be seamlessly integrated with third-party platforms or fed directly into the DAUintel data acquisition unit for real-time analysis.

Key Advantages:

  • Non-destructive, post-construction installation
  • Continuous monitoring from installation to full cure
  • Compact design ideal for retrofitting
  • Simplified installation process
  • Integrates with third-party systems and our DAUintel.

ConcreteIntel: Traditional Embedded Corrosion Probes (P4 / P6 Series)

Best for:

  • New construction projects
  • High-sensitivity, embedded corrosion tracking
  • Comprehensive monitoring from the start of service life.

The ConcreteIntel P4 and P6 Embedded Probes are designed for installation during concrete pour, embedding directly within the structure to deliver detailed monitoring from the earliest stages. These probes provide multi-depth analysis and high-resolution data, supporting proactive maintenance from day one.

Like the retrofit option, both P4 and P6 probes connect easily to third-party systems and the DAUintel, allowing centralised data capture and analysis across multiple monitoring points.

Key Advantages:

  • Ideal for new concrete installations
  • Embedded multi-depth monitoring
  • High-resolution corrosion and environmental data
  • Permanent installation for life-of-structure insights
  • Integrates with third-party systems and our DAUintel.
