A new fabrication method of FBG sensor with gage length shorter than 10 mm is introduced using the reflection prism with special coating on the surface. It is verified that the bandwidth of FBG sensor increases exponentially as the gage length of it decreases. The transverse stress and strain gradient induced by local stress concentration which occurs during curing has an influence on the FBG sensor with gage length of 2 mm less than that of 10 mm.

Although the strain distribution along the length of a beam in buildings or infrastructures is non-uniform, most fiber optic sensors are point sensors that can measure the strain only at a local point of a beam. Long gage fiber optic sensors that measure integrated strain over a relatively long length can consider strain variation. This type of sensor was found to be efficient and useful for monitoring large-scale structures. On the other hand, the maximum strain or stress in a beam can not be measured with long gage optic sensors. However, for the assessment of the safety of multi-span steel beams subjected to various vertical loads, the maximum strain or stress measured during monitoring is required for comparison with the allowable stress of the beam calculated by a design code. Therefore, in this paper, mathematical models are presented for determination of the maximum values of strains in more three-span steel beams based on the average strains measured by long gage optic sensors.

Back-face strain compliance (BFS compliance) for the four-point bend specimen has been calibrated for various crack length ratios. Finite element technique was employed to simulate four-point loading and calculate back-face strain of the bend specimen. The numerically determined strain variation along the back face indicates that the sensitivity to gage placement increases with crack length and back-face strain at the gage length less than O.2W, where W is the width of the bend specimen, can be measured within 5% deviation of the maximum BFS. Non-dimensional back-face strain compliance, -E'BCW, was calibrated with FE analysis and experiment. The experimentally determined compliance indicates good agreement with the numerical compliance and can be expressed as a function of crack length ratio.

In LNG Tank, it is very important to measure the strain in Membrane by theoretical and experimental stress analysis. In this paper, perform the test about strain gage, thermal sensor and lead wire to make clear the properies. The test results conclude that stress measurement by strain gage must consider the effect of many factors to measure strain acculately. The corrections should be made on apparent strain, lead wire length and Membrane shape. It is also important to measure the temperatures accurately at the strain gage location

The linear length measurements are most frequently performed and should be most accurate among other parts in dimensional metrology. We developed the linear measuring system using a laser interferometer to improve the accuracy and to shorten the calibration time. The uncertainty of the system is 0.01 .mu. for 500mm steel gage block. The range of the measurement and resolution of the system are 1000mm and 0.01 .mu. m, respectively.

Two ways of improvement of the strut for the HCF was made in this paper. The strut for the existing HCF is a passive link, which results the posture of the HCF and related bones. The accuracy of the HCF depends on the accuracy of the strut length. A "digital gage" was proposed to increase the accuracy of the strut by presenting the measuring result as figures in manual mode operation. And a "motorized strut system" was designed for the automated HCF operation. A strut was equipped with a motor, "motorized strut" can be operated manually and automatically. In automatic mode, the HCF operating data is generated by the HCF schedule package in PC and is downloaded to the "motorized strut system" controller. By these two improvements, changes in orthopedic equipments like HCF and other Ilizarov fixators are expected.

Recently, many researches on high strength reinforcing steel have been conducted to construct optimum reinforced concrete structures. However, the studies have shown that high strength steel shows less elongation capacity than normal strength steel. Therefore, high strength reinforcing steel may not satisfy the minimum elongation requirement of current standards. Moreover, elongation measurements may be not standardized ones since each standard has its own requirements for minimum elongation and gage length. Therefore, the standards for reinforcing steel testing must be investigated to verify the validity of Korean Standard D 3504. This research aimed to compare the requirements for minimum elongation and gage length of the Korean, American, Japanese, European, and ISO Standards. Then, the study further investigated accuracy of the standards by tensile test of reinforcing steel. The study results showed that the Korean Standard has the strictest requirement. Based on the study results, the authors proposed modified minimum elongation requirements for general reinforcing steel and new requirements for seismic reinforcing steel.

Expressions for the displacement of a bimorph, one end fixed and the other free, has been introduced when sinusoidal inputs were applied to the ceramic plates on a thin metal plate. Maximum displacements at the free end and strains at the position of strain gage attached were measured when various wave forms, voltages, and frequencies were applied to the bimorph whose length is 6.6[cm], width 2.5[cm], and thickness 0.0365[cm]. Under the constant voltage ( $70[V_{peak}]$ ), the strains and the displacements at the free end were larger than the case of the sinusoidal input when the square wave was applied and were smaller when triangular wave. It was shown that the displacements at the free end and the strains of the gage position were increased as the applied voltage in the range of $30-90[V_{peak}]$ and effective length were increased. And it was also found that the resonant frequency of a bimorph was decreased as its effective length was increased, and that the displacements and the strains were maximum at the resonant frequency.
