 SmartRock® Concrete Temperature & Maturity Strength Sensor

Concrete Temperature

SmartRock® allows for an easy way to report on the maximum, minimum, and temperature differential of your placed concrete without relying on painstakingly wired systems and data loggers. Get highly accurate data directly on your phone in real time! 

Use SmartRock® to:

  • Monitor concrete temperature 

  • Track the temperature differential within the same concrete element 

  • Measure ambient (exterior) conditions 

Concrete Strength

SmartRock® allows you to monitor the strength of your placed concrete in real time on your phone. Reduce or eliminate your reliance on field-cured cylinders (or cubes) and potentially deliver your project ahead of schedule and under budget.   

Use SmartRock® to:  

  • Calculate concrete strength using the standardized ASTM C1074 maturity method 

  • Monitor strength at different locations of your pour 

  • Know as soon as your pour reaches its strength requirements

FAQ's

How deep should the sensor be installed?

The sensor transmitter must be installed no more than 2 inches (5 cm) from the concrete surface. This is to enable strong wireless signal strength for continued connectivity to the sensor, even long after it has been installed in concrete.

What is the battery and memory life of the sensor?

Only SmartRock® Long Range sensors are compatible with the SmartHub™ Long Range.  Remote monitoring with SmartRock® requires the SmartHub™.

Can I turn the sensor on and off?

Yes. The sensors can be turned off to preserve battery and memory until the start of the pour, this is done by inserting the temperature probe back into the sensor body.

Up to what depth can I measure concrete’s temperature and strength?

The SmartRock® is available in several different lengths; the shorter cable has a length of 12 in (30 cm), while the longer cable can measure concrete temperature up to the following upon request: 10 ft, 30 ft, 50 ft, or 100 ft inside your concrete structure. Contact our team if you are not sure what sensor would be the best suited for your application.

What is the main difference between the SmartRock and the SmartRock Long range?

The SmartRock® – Long Range has an additional wireless communication capability compared to the SmartRock®. This means it can be used in the exact same way as the SmartRock® with the addition of long-range capabilities for remote monitoring with the SmartHub™– Long Range.

Can my regular SmartRock sensors connect to the SmartHub Long Range?

Only SmartRock®– Long Range sensors are compatible with the SmartHub™– Long Range.  Remote monitoring with SmartRock® requires the SmartHub™
